About this experience
No booth and no engineer. This is a writing room. Skyline shows you how he builds a song from the hook down: finding a phrase worth repeating, fitting it to the beat and then writing verses that support it instead of wandering off.
You work through exercises on cadence, internal rhyme and switching flows, and he breaks down lyrics from his own albums line by line. By the end you have a hook and at least one full verse written, with notes on what to rewrite.
