So, im wondering if it'll be possible to set up freestyle rap battles, on like TL ventrilo and perhaps save them and post them here. There's no way to make sure that people are 100% freestyling it without reading off a script, but i think we have enough integrity, or else it wouldn't be fun anyways if someone is cheating. Well i got some time right now, im "GS" on ventrilo anyone up for a rap battle now? XD, im not too good, so hopefully its someone else that is noobie.

edit: TL vent server link http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=124550
On vent i am : GS

I want to learn.
I'd be down to make a fool of myself on vent sometime.

Are there any ways to help your rhymes other than practice?

Practice, do it with friends, get over the fact that you will look stupid when you fuck up, cause it happens alot xD.

There's a thing called ciphering, which is when a beat is playing and people take turns rhyming verses. But i don't think there's any other way to get better, i do it a lot when im showering, or driving. I really enjoy doing it. :D

Hell, you'll probably look stupid even if you don't fuck up. I was driving around with my friends and they were all taking turns freestyling and when it got to my turn I couldn't think of anything better than
"Yo, we're all driving in a car, and going really far, the road is black like tar, and I'm trying to open this damn jar".

I didn't actually have a jar, just couldn't think of anything else to rhyme at the moment....

Basically each person has exactly 1 min, or another time set. And during that time, the individual is trying to freestyle rap meaning rhyming off the dome of your head while dissing on your opponent without anything prewritten. And the victor of the rap battle is usually determined by who has the loudest cheer from the crowd.
