SCIENTISTS & ENGINEERS
Killer Mike feat. André 3000, Future & Eryn Allen Kane
Communication coming in Too much that I can't communicate with all of them I do wish I had scientist or engineer friends, let's go Get out here, petrol is cheaper than it has ever been And then, who's to say when all will end? All I know is when the portrait painted better, have your portion of the rent A dollar more and you will get upgraded when you've think you've made it, you are then Just tolerated, overrated, hope I'm eighty when I get my second wind Small potatoes all I ate before potato chips would cut my corner lips Operator! Operator! I will pray that you connect me to a sip Of sangria, Zambia, camera cameo hand me a handful of hips A stamina stampede of happily happenings dabbling into obli- -vion, neon, be on the ambiance beyond as you promised that you would live Do summers ever forget, pajamas feel like a kid Cucumber will make her drip, do jump on her, hit a split Hookahs don't really do shit, Duke Ellington in this bitch Rebelling is like an itch, ooh
Rhyme Scheme
Dense multi-syllabic stream-of-consciousness matrix shifting through root polyptoton, alveolar nasals (/ɛn/, /ɪn/), multi-rhyme dactylic geographical clusters (/æm/, /iə/), /æp/-/æb/ staccato bounce, and multi-syllabic slants ('cucumber' / 'do jump on her').
Producer Notes
André 3000 displays unparalleled polyphonic complexity, opening with root polyptoton ('Communication'/'communicate'), weaving internal percussive short-a clusters ('happily'/'happenings'/'dabbling'), and building multi-syllabic slant mirrors ('Cucumber'/'do jump on her'). He seamlessly transitions through four-syllable '-ated' and geographical '-ia' assonance while physically splitting words ('obli-vion') across metric boundaries.
