Really drives home both how much more sophisticated hip hop has become and the incredible degree of difficulty in trying to simulate such sophisticated language structures.
- dancek 10y agoEminem has similar trickery going on in most songs and that's probably one of the reasons of his success. Of course many other rappers do the same, and surely Eminem isn't the inventor of funky rhyme patterns. It's been 15 years but I used to analyze the patterns. Brings back memories.
