...Night Long," and his silver-tongued baritone plays skillfully against Nneaka Morton's soft vocals in "I'll Be There." But it's in "When I Be On Tha Mic" that Rakim proves he is still master of tight verbal syncopation, complex rhyme schemes, and unforgettable lines: "DJs display tricks like the Matrix/Make the record fly undetected by the naked eye/So just feel the vibe 'cos your ears never...
