2848001, True or False: A rap album isn't a rap album without a blackout verse

Meaning there has to be at least one attempt by the MC to forego everything else and just black the fuck out on the spit. Concepts might be the exception but even then I think blackout verses can happen. I ain't tested this theory yet, but just realize that when i listen to a rap album I'm literally listening for the blackout verse. No matter how tight everything else might be, without that something feels lacking.
