    I guess one could call it “chain referencing”. A rapper makes wordplay around one thing throughout multiple lines instead of the usual one line like we’re used to. Three examples I’m sure this site would be familiar with:

    Drake - Tuscan Leather
    Aye, b, I got your CD, you get an e for effort
    I piece letters together and get to talking reckless

    Drake - Jodeci Freestyle
    All this capital it's like I left the caps lock on
    It's like every time I plot a return I seem to shift the game
    See I can still talk keys without pitchin' cane

    And then of course…
    Kendrick Lamar’s verse, Pusha T - Nosetalgia

    The way Mickey Factz employed "checking boxes" at the end of "wraith" was insane

    Niggas'll lose they mind for it
    Wine for it, dine for it (pussy)
    Spend time for it, see no colored line for it (pussy)
    Double back handicap and go blind for it (pussy)
    P**** got endless prisoners
    P**** always revengin' her
    P**** is calculating
    And good p**** is rather dangerous
    P**** can be so facetious, the heavyweight champ
    P**** is so undefeated, let's amen to that
    I mean, the pump fakes on the Facebooks
    And the screw face when the bae look
    Won't get you no p****
    I mean, the fake chains and the gold names
    For insecure, gon' reassure you not to get p****
    You overcompensate too much for the p****
    You like to throw all kinda shade for the p****
    See, that's what p**** niggas do
    I know the ways of a p****, I see p**** lookin' at you
    How many niggas get mistaken for c***oris in a day?
    How many sentiments you make before runnin' p**** away?
    How many times she gotta tell you that d*** is disposable?
    But if she f*** a young nigga like me, it's over for you
    Solána, middle fingers up, speak your truth

    Does a song like Lupe’s Gotta Eat count? those type of songs that stick to the same wordplay topic for the whole song, I like them

    Ask God for an answer, it's crickets
    I guess he didn't make us in his image
    Are we real boys or mimics?
    I can't lie, I just keep tryna spin it
    I guess I'm a cynic
    But why ain't Geppeto mind his business?

    Quantum physics could never show you the world I was in
    When I was ten, back when nine ounces had got you ten
    And nine times out of ten, niggas don't pay attention
    And when it's tension in the air, nines come with extensions

    It's a new day, who got all the aces?
    Who be folding late, who know when to play dead?
    Who sit up straight when the roof caved in?
    Had a full plate, you aint wanna split it,
    Tell it to you straight, you ain't wanna listen

    Earl on East with the card wordplay again

    My soul and my heart, all in it

    Depending where i play my cards, the wind whisper to me

    Ever since me and Dre split it 50/50 on 50, it's funny

    We got a buzz spreading quicker than making paper airplanes out of a 20

    F*** money, I don't rap for dead presidents

    I'd rather see the president dead

    It's never been said but I set precedents (said presidents)
    And the standards, and they can't stand it
