Ever wonder where rappers get all their ideas? It might not be from this book but it sure can't hurt to get you started. This book features many common phrases and rhymes that pepper the vocabulary of some of the best rap artists out there. Not only does it contain rhyme ideas, it also gives a brief history of this colorful musical style. Think rap can't be education? Think again. There is a section dedicated to various rhyme styles and an explanation of how they work throughout a song. While these might not be found in English class, it is interesting to see how the songs come together. The book then moves through the homonyms and phrases. Overall, it is more so a book of rhyming phrases than just similar words.
