hello bros..

constructing a punch

heres the obvious:

line 1 is ur set up line....
line 2 is the punch...
2 lines = 1 punchline


what do u look for in a battle? either humor or creativity/wit

how to pack a punch u ask?

the 2 main ingredients are...
1 - the concept - the main focus behind the punch... it can consist of one word or phrase
2 - wording - the way u make that concept standout.. its all about the way u deliver it

these are the keys to constructing a good punch

once u master these... the rest comes together - such as flow/ multies - no one word rhyming cuz that really takes away from the way the punch is carried

now... how do u stay from the obvious u ask...

a simile is usually simplistic... I'm give u an example of how I like to coordinate my lines

how many times u tried stopping me?
u have faith in ur abilities… its just ur concepts are atheist & ya wording’s into scientology

notice the "how many times u tried stopping me" line... simple but sets up the punch perfectly...

"faith in ur abilities" is the concept in this one... now the way I worded it is what made this one a beauty... faith ties up religion (atheist and scientology) so I connected with his opposites for the diss...

this line is a bit lengthy... but the sting makes people forget about that and the tad of choppiness, know why? cuz the concept and wording are STRONG... only those things can let u get away with other minor details

my recommendation is to begin with ur concept... word it in as many ways as u think and choose ur best...if flow makes it work better by using multies go for it... but that shouldnt be ur first choice of concentration.... concept and wording should be... never sacrifice a punch for flow... but its ok to sacrifice flow for a punch

also... as u get creative remember the point is dissing ur opponent... i see it all the time when someone references something that does not attack their opponent... u didnt accomplish shit by that...

this is lesson 1...

I want u guys to set up and word the following concept in this thread

"u're trash"

due Saturday before noon

thx
