That sounds like the start of a long journey.

The first thing to do is to learn to play an instrument. If you can already play, then learn about chords and music theory.

Eventually you will be ready to record yourself. For that you don't need much to start - just some way of recording. You COULD do it with a computer but it might be better to do it with some other portable recording device so that you can get the feel of what you sound like and some experience in recording in general.

When you need to start mixing, then you will need a computer with a DAW of some kind so that you can start learning about how to use them.

But first things first, learn about your instrument of choice, or if you are going to use other peoples music to rap to, then learn about microphones and get some practice at performing.
