A literary device used by various hip-hop artists, the likeless simile is a simile without the words like or as prior to the descriptive part of the sentence.
For instance, in the song Bed Rock by Young Money, the
following line contains a likeless simile:
"I just be coming off the top; asbestos"
This line in simile form would be as follows:
"I just be coming off the top like asbestos"
Since the word like was omitted from the simile, it is a likeless simile.
Other examples of the Likeless similie include:
In Kanye West's "Good Morning":
"You got d's, motherfucker, d's, (like) Rosie Perez."
In Drake's "Forever":
"Swimmin' in the money, come and find me, (like) Nemo"
In Young Money's "Bed Rock":
"Shake and bake, (like) Ricky Bobby

a kind of action that benefits or is in the interest of all parties involved. From the Latin "simul", meaning "together". An alternative to egoism or altruism.
John's similism was obvious when he refused to give up until he found a solution that everyone was happy with.
