Use FL-Studio. It practically opens itself. ;D

Listen to music that you normally wouldn't listen to.

I came across a ton of stuff from all over the world on 7digital.com. Its a good site for new artist and you can check out many foreign artist as well.

As a rapper, I often find myself with writer's block. It helps to force yourself into the studio, honestly. I like to set aside a few hours on a saturday morning and lock myself in the lab with some coffee and just start writing to whatever beats I have available, even if it's not the greatest stuff I've ever written. At least it keeps me from getting rusty, and there are always ideas and concepts I can take away from the practice session.

The only real musical inspiration I can truly preach is to collaborate with other musicians. It's one thing to try to force inspiration when you're alone, but it tends to flow more naturally if you have another musician next to you with an instrument and just start bouncing ideas off of each other. Make a schedule where you get with a friend and force yourselves to do a barebones sketch of at least one song every time you're together.

I usually check my various accounts online and think about what I would think if I was not myself and was a fan of my music and didn't see an update.

Force yourself to sit down and do something. It might not feel very productive or creative at first to sit down and just do stuff, but once you get going, you'll be glad you did. Having hard deadlines helps, too.

Too easy man... Grab something you've been working on, some demo or WIP, and send it to me. I'll put ya to work

The best motivation for me on making music is listening to other music that I love, and wanting to be better than that.
