The '''Rat-a-tat Rap''' is an attack performed by jumping and pressing {{B}}, or by pressing {{B}} at any time in the air. [[Banjo]] will lower his head and allow [[Kazooie]] to peck enemies. Because it can be executed quickly and deals high damage, this attack is ideal for defeating most enemies, provided that they are tall enough for it to reach.
The '''Rat-a-tat Rap''' is an attack used by [[Banjo]] and [[Kazooie]]. In the first two games, ''[[Banjo-Kazooie]]'' and ''[[Banjo-Tooie]]'', the duo can use the move if the player presses {{button|n64|B}} while they are in midair. The move also appears in ''[[Banjo-Kazooie: Grunty's Revenge]]'', where the player can also use the move by pressing {{button|gba|B}}.
 
When the duo use the move, Banjo lowers his head, allowing for Kazooie to peck enemies. Because it can be executed quickly and deals high damage, this attack is ideal for defeating most enemies, provided that they are tall enough for it to reach.


The Rat-a-tat Rap can sometimes be used as an alternative to the [[Feathery Flap]] when jumping across long spans. Although it does not provide the same upward boost, it can cover a greater distance without descending, especially when given a running start.

The Rat-a-tat Rap can also be used while using the [[Talon Trot]] in ''[[Banjo-Kazooie]]'', whereas the Feathery Flap cannot.
