Neural Correlates of Lyrical Improvisation: An fMRI Study of Freestyle Rap : Scientific Reports : Nature Publishing Group : "Spontaneous improvisation is a complex cognitive process that shares features with what has been characterized as a ‘flow’ state. It has been suggested that the frontal lobe, may play a central role in the improvisatory process, although the nature of its contributions is unclear. On this basis, in addition to its other characteristics, we expected the neural correlates of lyrical improvisation to include changes in prefrontal activity that might enable spontaneous creative activity through effects on systems that regulate attention, affect, language and motor control."
