Yes, anyone can become a rapper. You need to have sufficient talent, the right connections, and the finances to be able to take advantage of opportunities when they arise. There are no exact requirements for becoming a rapper. A lot of it comes down to luck and who you know.

If you have the desire and the talent to become a rapper, you can begin to enter competitions to gain exposure. There is often an entry fee, which can be a deterrent to some. If participating in competitions is impossible, look for local clubs that hold rap battles monthly or quarterly. Looking into what works for you, your schedule, and your funds is crucial.

Networking is extremely important to become a rapper. You need to get "discovered", and can achieve this by doing well in competitions. You can also seek out important clubs and events near you to work toward performing in them. From there, you may be able to meet someone who can direct you to bigger and better opportunities.
