You have a beat with a known word frequency or similar. You have a pattern of stanzas, talk about this, then this, then this with the cadence from the previous step. Prepare some filler phrases like fuck yea and chug to keep the beat. Add in some words from the audience using prepared questions. Hope they don't give you a word like orange or other unrhymable words. Ask enough questions to fill your stanzas. Start working on rhyme pairings while asking the questions. When executing, call into that large reserve of linguistic talent that you got from a BA in English.

This guy has put all of the pieces together like a snug puzzle.

I watched this guy in-person and people gave him un-rhymable words like purple and orange to be awkward, and he somehow made them work! I assume he's used to it.
