Default Re: Words which are the same spelt backwards or forwards

mc paul barman does palindromes here and there. an example would be his song Bleeding Brain Grow", in which he lists some rappers:

"Eve, Mika, RZA, Evil JD, Nasir is Osiris, and J-live, AZ, Rakim Cormega, Cage, Mr. OC."

but it's weird because when you read it backwards it still has all the names but not in the same order:

COrMega, Cage, mr oC, mika, RZA, evil Jd, nasir is Osiris, aND J livE, AZ, RakiM, evE

so is it still a palindrome? he does have some lines where it's exactly the same when you read it backwards
