I’ve had singstar since it first appeared on US shelves a few years back and have purchased most of the volumes since then. I’m not the best singer, but I do score in the 9500s frequently on easy and just break the 9000 mark on medium. But the one thing I (and many fellow players on the internet) have been utterly disgraced by is the whole rapping part of the game. How the hell is it done? I’ll get a good steak of 2 or 3 “good” and then suddenly without changing anything in my ‘rapping’, I get a dozen “awful.” Anyone who may come across this, please leave a comment with some insight on how to beat the rap meter. Please, I’m begging you all!
This is how I rap: Be on time with every word and verse and match pitch. Don’t talk the words but don’t sing them either. Pretty much do what you would do in the game and mimic the singer/rapper. But this doesn’t work all the time. Why? Damn you SingStar Rap Meter. Damn you.

Goto:
Options > Hardware Settings > Latency
…and do an auto calibration – it seems there’s a slight delay between when you speak/sing and when singstar registers you’ve started to sing – obviously in rap mode hitting the timing of the notes spot on is essential so any slight latency problem will cause bad scores. HTH!
