"Alright now were going to talk about the choruses. Because I believe the chorus is the nucleus to the song. I believe it's the cornerstone it's the center it's the backbone of the entire record. So you know a lot of people will say, start by finding you flow or start by your first verse, or start with your intro. Na you do all that second my tip to you, is the first thing you do is find a chores. That's what they call driving the hook home. It's, It's the main part of the song that will be forever remembered in you record. So It's no point of writing a whole long record. If your hook ain't even banging. Cause if your hook ain't banging then your songs not banging, you see what I'm saying? To kind of go into further detail about my song, No Hope. I'm going to have a hook on there that?s probably subject to be more of a melodic chorus. Cause if you?re going to have a chorus for singing in it. A singing chorus you?re going to need a melody. You know your going to have to have a melody to it. So I kind of got a melody to this joint and it's just like I'm going to show you?ll the melody. It's something like this. Ok. Now you want to get a melody like just to show you the melody first I'm going to rock verses. Ne,ne,ne, ne,ne,na,no,na,na,na,na,na no,no bea,na,na, na,na bay,hey,no` doe. I never felt save and felt so broke um hmm, hmm, hmm.hmm,hmm. I grew up in a neighborhood where we had no hope. The neighborhood role models all sold dope. We had to give money cause my Mom's so broke and I know a better days coming. See I grew up and had no hope. See what I'm saying. I found my melody, you know that, I grew up in a neighborhood we had no hope. The neighborhood role models all sold dope. We had to give money cause our Mom's so broke. And I know a better day's coming."
