i thought this was the perfect audiance to ask...if this aint the right section my bad,shove me.
does anyone first write a song to a beat,or the other way?
ive only ever written straight bars,never with a beat in mind
then,when you record,do you record an acapella first and then overlay it on the instrumental?
i tried this,but it seems disconnected.how do producers make a verse stick to the beat?
what im really trying to ask is...can any acapella (or almost any),if done right,be tailored to any beat?or do you rap over the instrumental live,and record them both together?
