I need a Rapper

Its as the title says, 'I need a rapper' for a video game song project which is almost 70% complete

I am writing multiple songs at the moment in my spare time - but I've never ever incorporated rapping into my music because I've never had a chance to appreciate the musical style of rapping...plus I can't rap

QUALIFICATIONS

to qualify you must:

• Be contactable either by email, on skype or some other communicative media (Typically you need to be reachable within 72 hours)
• Have a working studio microphone/condensor microphone/recording microphone
• Not disseminate any information regarding the details of this music project to anybody except to members of the project (doing so will result in your lyrics and contribution not being used and you will unlikely be paid if I did decide to commision you)
• Have experience in rapping cohesively
• Be able to write catchy/rhyming lyrics for a rap* either in the languages Japanese or English (preferrably in english) - hence your english needs to be quite good
• Have written raps for your own musical projects or other musical projects (I will need a sample of your work to prove your ability)
• Don't mind having your lyrics/voice recording posted on public media such as youtube/facebook/soundcloud
• Be prepared to have your lyrics continuously criticised constructively and rewritten until we come to an agreement on the lyrics
• Be prepared to record your rap in different tempos (180 BPM as stated below is the tempo the song is currently composed in - thats on a 4/4 meter)
• Have a mailing address and be prepared to have something mailed to you
• NOT claim copyright over any part of the song that we have written EXCEPT for the lyrics in the rap that you wrote
• MAKE THE TIME FOR THIS PROJECT...I do not want people who pass the application process tell me "I don't have the time" - thats my line!
• The above rules are NOT negotiable

Please keep lyrics clean, I do NOT want foul language, sexual references or dirty vocabulary please

ASSIGNMENT

Here is the task - The song I am writing can be expanded in the following story:

A young man and a young woman (boy and girl?) destined by fate to meet, yet they are separated by time and by distance. They are essentially living on parallel realms of the same universe - the only place they can meet are in dreams. Their dreams transcend the flow of the sand in the hourglass of time, as well as allows them to cross immeasurable distances to traverse galaxies and the realm between.

It needs to last approx 48 beats played on a tempo of 180 beats per minute on a 4/4 scale (i.e. 12 bars or approx 15-20 seconds)

You can be as creative as possible as long as you stick to the story

Please keep lyrics clean, I do NOT want foul language, sexual references or dirty vocabulary please

THEMES

• A longing to cross realms
• Knowing someone special is right next to you in spirit, even though they aren't physically there
• 'Dropping into a wakeless sleep'
• The feeling of 'Connection' and 'relationships between people' be it between close friends, siblings, parent/child, lovers, brothers, sisters...etc
• If you want inspiration, watch the final part of KH3D, pay particular attention to the reality shifts "Mirage Split" or "Nightmare's End"

REIMBURSEMENT

• If you are not a professional rapper and I end up selecting you for your services, I will send you either a "Kingdom Hearts" or "FINAL FANTASY" keycharm as a gift of appreciation at the end of the project.
• Depending on the quality of work - I may commission you (I am willing to pay up to AU$15 maximum for your services, if you are a semi-professional rapper, but I may pay up to AU$30 maximum if you are a professional rapper or vocalist.)
• If I decide to commission you (i.e. you are Semi Professional or professional) we will negotiate payment after your part has been recorded and finalised. You will need a paypal account after which I will promptly reimburse your for your services AFTER the song has been mixed and recorded/released.
• The song will have a "feat.<insert your nickname>" after the title of the song for this particular recording.

DISCLAIMER

• This is a NON profit project even though I am desperate enough to pay out of my own pocket to see this project become reality in its most perfect form. (That is how obsessed I am with this project)
• This song will not be on itunes, for copyright reasons I will not be selling this song as it is likely it will be free for download on release
• Application deadline and start time of recording will be 1st of January 2014, we will discuss payment (if applicable) only after the song has been finalised (estimated recording time is 1 month). I will have chosen a rapper by then.
• For more information - please send me a personal message
• Please consider all the above before you volunteer yourself

May music connect our hearts and bring peace to this world
