you can't do that because 16 is not divisible by 3. the verse doesn't HAVE to be 16 bars in total (there are no rules when making music) so why don't you just make the verse 12 or 15 bars?

yeah ive done that a few times myself..
another thing to think about is, play around with the sample and try slicing it, and re-creating the sample to fit into a 2 bar or 4 bar loop, dont let the sample dictate how the beat structure is gona take place, you gotta slice it, and re-create it so u can do wat the hell u want to it

thats my opinion anyway
