One of the first instances of this occurs in the song “Small Time Hustlers” when the Dismasters accuse their subject’s so-called posse of “plotting and scheming to get them some Scotty.” Tommy Wright III describes his son coming “inside my place” in his song “Gangsta Forever” in this style while Lord Infamous describes, “sippin’ on six murdered ministers” on the track “Sleep” in this manner. With roots in African rhythms, this style of rapping has often been used to emphasize emotion, such as in “All We Got” when Chance the Rapper asserts, “It was a dream, you could not mess with the Beam.” A track that reinvigorated this style of rapping was remixed by Drake, to which he added lyrics such as “Born in Toronto but sometimes I feel like Atlanta adopted us” to that brand-oriented song. For ten points, name this flow associated in recent times with the song “Versace” and often used by Migos, in which one beat is divided into three notes instead of the usual two or four.
