Andre's verse was dope but it's not because he rhymed 9 syllables. Anyone can do that with enough practice. I can do that. The difference is whether or not you say anything DOPE while doing that.

What does sayin somethin "dope" have to do with anything?:what:

The fact that he rhymed the 9 syllables IS whats dope.

He was talking to a chick and introduced himself. He did it in rhyme form. What he said went perfectly with the flow of the verse, and both 9- syllable lines made sense. He didnt rhyme just to rhyme.

Exactly, that's what's dope about it. Rhyming multiple syllables in and of itself is not impressive unless the way it fits into the verse (and into the line) is impressive. In this case it's a love song and he's spitting game at her while slipping in some witty lines while at the same time flexing his technicality. That's what makes the verse impressive.
