      My uncle was my mentor for music and when he started at a young age he learned a lot and he also told me when I counted bars to him I did it the same he told me to try this and to not think of the snare as a barrier or something and he counted slower it was like one.......... Too......... Three he always told me that the snare was not your cue or

    You are worthy to call yourself the rap coach. Many people are trying to find a flow. But by understanding and feeling the snares you don't try anymore but you do. But it would be more helpfull if you used multiple beats instead of just one. So people can hear the different flows
