13. "the *verse* itself was blackout"

like can you see that, based on my descriptions so far liberal as they may be. it's a display of lyrical skill. Kane wrote it is the only 'complication'. But Biz owned it. He didn't fumble like Dre spitting a ___ verse... feel me?

It's not the execution of the song. it's owning the verse. Owning the mic for a verse.

I know folk use blackout for 40 bar spit and shit like that, but its the intent behind it not the length.

I fucked up using blackout because of that, but I don't know how else to describe

Redman made albums of blackout verses. I'm not even saying it has to be the best or good for that matter, it's just the attempt to show you da best on the mic has to be displayed somewhere.

"Goin Off" qualifies because on that track Biz is clearly just showing off even if BDK wrote it.
