"Did Saddam make any public statements about questioning his decisions, identity, or himself in general? "Did he ever ask who's sane among humans? Y'all are reading the line all wrong, & don't peep or understand the structure of it.
I'm similar to Saddam; sometimes I question who's sane. There are 4 plausible senses that make sense. Q.E. isn't a formal or official dictionary term, but the logic of it's meaning is the exact same as double entendre. It qualifies as such; I don't understand the confusion.

Unconventional and complex.

In rap, the artist will typically follow up "I'm similar to" (whoever, whatever) with something that explains how they're similar to whoever or whatever they're comparing themselves to. Pac didn't do that; instead, he listed the similarities before saying he was similar to him.

"A general in war, I'm the first to bomb With a squad of trusted killers, quick to move shit, heavily armed I'm similar to Saddam." -Makaveli He listed similarities between himself and Saddam in reverse order before explicitly stating he was similar to him; that's unorthodox. 1. Both he and Saddam were figuratively generals in war. 2. Saddam initiated multiple literal bombings; Makaveli initiated multiple figurative bombings; they were both first to bomb. 3. Saddam had a squad of literal trusted killers who were heavily armed and quick to move shit, and Makaveli had a squad of figurative and literal trusted killers who were heavily armed and quick to move shit. War/military motif employed. To be continued...

People mostly rave about the two homophones Makaveli and Biggie used here, but they hardly ever talk about how they set them up and how their following lines were chef's kisses. "A general in war, I'm the first to bomb With a squad of trusted killers, quick to move shit, heavily armed I'm similar to Saddam, sometimes I question who's sane Like fiends frantic for that last vein, stuck in the game." -Makaveli "Break bread, with the 'Kiss, Peniro, Sheek Louch Black Rob joined the Mob, it ain't no replacing him Niggas step up, we just macin' them, placin' them In funerals, criminals turned aroused to Brick City." -Biggie Smh. 🔥 🔥
The verses in "All Out" and "Victory" are both Makaveli's and Biggie's last verses that they ever recorded. They both went out with a bang and executed three incredible verses. Ironically, they both dissed each other in their last songs; Makaveli did it while Biggie was still alive, but Biggie subliminally dissed him in the track "Victory" after his death. That Vic guy, aka the guy who put 50 Cent in the same tier as Pac lyrically, claimed that Makaveli could never write a verse like Biggie's "Victory" verses in a million years. He highlighted Biggie's film references; yes, movie references, wordplay, and a few other things. I can tell you right now that "All Out" clears these Biggie verses when it comes to motif, wordplay, and overall literary device mastery, and he's doing it with more depth/substance, which is generally more difficult to do. Overall, it's more complex than Biggie's verses. The average listener does not understand how deep Makaveli got into his literary device bag in this verse and how well he's using each device. He was very sneaky with it, and he hid things in plain sight. I'll give you an example of what I'm referring to. He's making figurative language appear to be non-figurative at face value, but when you look beyond the surface, it's not. The average listener doesn't have a high understanding of his poetry, and the false narratives make it even harder for them to elevate their understanding because they're severely brainwashed by them. A lot of so-called 2Pac fans are not true students of him and his work, and that has to do with false narratives. Let's remove names, narratives, bias, and personal agendas and only focus on what's being displayed. Let's examine the lyrics on paper closely, carefully, and objectively and breakdown what they're both doing lyrically overall. This has absolutely nothing to do with flow or anything related to the vocal performance of either artist; this is strictly about the lyrics on paper. This doesn't even have anything to do with which track is better or if you like either song by either artist; it's strictly about what they're doing lyrically on paper. I challenge the dope technician @rapsody , @LupeFiasco , the suspect 2Pac fan @JColeNC and the fake 2Pac fan @JoeBudden to get deep into the details with me. I challenge only serious individuals to get deep into the details with me. I have time. Sidenote: Both Biggie and 2Pac were great poets.

They are after him, as in “to chase (someone): to try to find or capture (someone you want to hurt or punish)” - Webster, but they are also after him in ranking. The phrase has two senses in the lyrics; this is a double entendre by definition.
You got a lot of nerve to play me Another gay rapper, bustin' caps at Jay-Z And still avoid capture While y'all caught up in the rapture Still after me I'm in Jamaica sippin' daiquiris Metaphor ✅️ Imagery ✅️ Juxtaposition ✅️ Multis ✅️ Wordplay ✅️ Motif ✅️

Look closely at the syntax; he never actually told us how he's similar after stating that he was.Based on the logic you guys are using, you can ask,"has Saddam ever questioned the phrase; has he ever questioned Lesane? He made a statement but didn't elaborate in any of the senses

“I am similar to Saddam, & that makes me question Hussein.” I'm similar to Saddam, which ironically makes me question Hussein. This is how he means it; words such as "and," which, etc. are just omitted because they're not needed & they would get in the way of the other senses.
