A wise man told me resembling Goldie
Bumping the oldies though watch the road please
After he let me hold these gold keys of knowledge
That I acknowledge wasn't from college
But from a lot of mileage

in just these few lines he rhymes like 4-5 syllables per line while making sense.

This is true. I know people don't like to keep track of such nerdy things, but Elzhi deserves some props for this. Usually this technique requires a compromise between style and substance that sucks the life out of most topical verses. But Eminem has written many compelling verses with this style, and at this point I agree that Elzhi has surpassed him.

saafir >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> both them muthafukkas

:snooze:

Boxcar Sessions is amazing, but it's one body of work from over 20 years ago. Saafir never rapped at that level again. He scaled back a little on Trigonometry, and continued to dumb it down from there.

eminem has never been a lyricist where like he could rhyme bananas and make sense it was either one or the other

elzhi verses are so fluid and each line make sense while still making sense vice versa.
