Ever wondered how Busta Rhymes raps so fast? Well, he’s finally shared his secret.
- Busta says the key to his speed is all about relaxation and focus.
- He stays still on stage to keep his energy centered while performing fast verses.
- Busta spilled the beans during a chat with GloRilla at Rolling Stone’s series.
- He’s got a new album dropping soon, so more fast raps are on the way.
Busta Rhymes has finally let fans in on the secret behind his lightning-fast verses. During a lively chat with GloRilla for Rolling Stone’s Musicians On Musicians series, Busta was asked how he manages his rapid-fire rapping. His answer? “I’ma be honest with you – it’s called relaxing!”
The rapper explained that while performing songs with fast verses like “Look At Me Now” or “Break Ya Neck,” he minimizes his movements. His partner Spliff Star handles the stage antics, allowing Busta to stay still and keep all his energy focused on clear enunciation.
“It’s really about just centering everything to where the primary focus is, and in that moment, it’s my mouth,” Busta elaborated. He underscored the importance of delivering lyrics clearly, “because it defeats the purpose to do the fast thing if you don’t know what I’m saying.”
Fans are in for a treat with Busta’s 12th studio album on the horizon. Initially teasing a release for November 29, 2024, an Instagram post updated fans to expect the album on January 3. Busta’s enthusiasm was obvious as he announced, “A NEW PROBLEM IS ABOUT TO START!! ON GOD!!”
This upcoming project follows 2023’s release, “Blockbusta,” which featured a stellar lineup of collaborators including Chris Brown, Young Thug, and many more. Frequent Busta allies like Swizz Beatz, Timbaland, and Pharrell were behind the scenes, ensuring a hit-filled production.
With such exciting insights and upcoming releases, Busta Rhymes continues to captivate fans with his unique style and unmatched speed.
