I notice it too OP and it's honestly the most annoying thing about Nas to me. Reeks of laziness.

I also can't freakin stand when Em does bars like this
"What an ensemble, what an assortment of pharma-
Ceuticuls this beautiful pill does..."

I hate that cuttin the word in half thing to make it rhyme

nikkas makes 100 names for one technique, if not that they'll make other names that other ones already share.

Not a single one will tell you who came up with that name, how and and why

:comeon:

Like what the fukk makes it a "Spiral", does the verse in that section look like the one on a notebook binder, or the football throw?

:mjlol:

Nas is just the GOAT, his writing is on such a level that he just tries out different rhyme patterns and all kinds of shyt and it ALWAYS comes out ill.

Meanwhile mainstream rap fans think Eminem is the king of rhyme schemes. :scusthov:


Eminem is the king but back to the goat

You should start doing vids on this op

What about when rappers literally "split" words in 2. Andre 300 and Eminem does this alot.

Matter fact Stacks did it on that Outro joint:

Pulled her ponytail to my body/
She's the only gal that was smart e/
nough to call me Mr. Benjamin, in the middle of a wild party


He split the word "enough" at the end of the bar and carried it over to the beginning of the next bar. I love when rappers do that:banderas:


Ima make a thread on that too soon
Isn't that called a cliff hanger?

What the hell?:mjlol:

nikkas have 4 names for this shyt, now it's a "cliffhanger" the suspense is gonna kill me at this rate with laughter. If nobody is gonna link where the fukk they heard these made up rhyming terms, then it doesn't describe a damn thing. This is like bad Jeopardy episode on rhyming styles.

In reality there's no rules to rhyming, if it sounds good it is good. The Jacka used to do something similar where he would end the thought of the bar in the middle of the next line, you could tell from his style that he grew up on Cormega/Nas/etc. but it was ill how he flipped it on some west coast shyt.



"You nikkas hating, you'll never get far, like a shooting star
In my SLR, to the top what I'm heading for
My shyt'll never lock, swear to god that the lead'll soar
through the wind in your door, that's just the first shot
Here come 99 more, a gangsta is what you not
Come on, why you lying boy? Telling nikkas what you got
That's not who you really are, you wanna be me
I'm under in my rental car, loading my piece
I can't get loaded off tree no more, I need bo to make it stronger
can't wait no longer, I'm like a vampire
I can't shake the hunger, the one who nikkas hire
to take they life from 'em, we won't live forever mayne
Everybody coming, thinking bout what never came
The game never loved him, played the hand we was dealt
Ony God could judge him, hella paper I done felt
Never left the struggle, end up out here by myself
But I still love it"

Nas influenced a lot of writers though period, myself included.

I call those "fist of the north star" bars...They have content AND structure that hits you later. By the time you're hip to the subtlety...something else crazy is happening in the verse. That's why they're both in my top 3.


Royce bipolar style verse on the Loud Noises song from Bad Meets Evil album

:krs:

He jumps out of nowhere with random rhymes that connects 3 or 5 bars later

:mindblown:

I am saying much. I just said Em would spank Nas in a rap battle and you agreed.
They're not battle rappers though breh, so you're NOT saying shyt.

And you're basing this off of Em freestyle battling in the 90s anyway. :camby:

In today's battle rap world, Nas would wash Em as long as he could remember his verses (Nas would be easily susceptible to a choke though).
