Frequently Asked Questions
What is a perfect rhyme vs a near rhyme?
A perfect rhyme shares the exact same vowel sound and any following consonants — "cat" and "bat" are perfect rhymes. A near rhyme (also called a slant rhyme or half rhyme) shares a similar but not identical sound — "time" and "mine" are near rhymes. Near rhymes are widely used in modern pop and hip-hop songwriting.
What words are hardest to rhyme?
Notoriously difficult English words to rhyme include "orange" (near rhymes: door hinge, porridge), "silver" (near rhyme: pilfer), "month" (near rhyme: dunth), and "purple" (near rhyme: burple, curple). For these, near rhymes and multisyllabic rhymes are the songwriter's solution.
How do rappers find rhymes?
Experienced rappers use multisyllabic rhymes (matching two or more syllables), near rhymes, and internal rhymes (rhymes within a line rather than at the end). They also rhyme on unstressed syllables for flow. A rhyme finder like this helps brainstorm options quickly.
