Rapping to help speech technique/tip We've all heard that many people don't stutter when they sing. Well I've found the same thing happens with rapping. I have stuttered for years but have become very good at hiding most of it. The only thing I really struggle to say is my name. It's so embarrassing and I avoid introductions which has a negative effect on my life. I have found that by rapping my name in a sentence I can always say it. Fot example. "hey, my name's Rebecca, I have an appointment at half five." It sounds a bit silly to the other person but I'd rather do that than stutter or block. Over time as you get more confident you can make the rap less obvious and slowly transition back to a normal sentence again. If you really struggle it also seems to works well if you play rap instrumental beats while wearing headphones. I know this won't help everyone but it has helped me so I thought I'd share.
