Rhyme Generator

1. 01

   Type one word

   Letters only, like “night”, “money” or “pressure”. For a phrase, search the word you want to rhyme, usually the last one.

2. 02

   Pick perfect or slant

   Perfect rhymes match the ending sound exactly, like night and light. Slant rhymes sound close, like night and mind. Each tab shows how many words it found.

3. 03

   Look by syllable count

   Results are grouped into 1-syllable, 2-syllable and longer words. Each group starts with everyday words, the ones listeners know.

A rhyme list made for writing rap, not poems.

• Two lists for every word. Perfect and slant rhymes on separate tabs, each with a count. If a word has no perfect rhymes, the slant tab opens first.
• Grouped by syllables. Need a two-syllable word to finish a line? Go straight to that group.
• Common words first. You don't have to dig through rare words, surnames and abbreviations to find one you can use.
• Rhymes by sound, not spelling. That's why “height” shows up for night and “though” shows up for flow.

This tool only finds words. To get full lyrics on a topic, use the rap song lyrics generator or the rap verse generator. Both can also turn your lyrics into a song you can hear.

Real results for four words, cut down to a few each. Search the same words above to see the full lists, often over a hundred words long.

• Use perfect rhymes for punchlines and hooks. They sound clean and hit hard. Slant rhymes sound more natural in a verse, so you don't have to force in an odd word just because it rhymes.
• Rhyme two or three syllables, not one. “Couldn’t take the pressure, came back fresher” matches two syllables and hits harder than one. Look in the longer syllable groups for these.
• Rhyme inside the line too. “I write at night by the light of my phone” has three rhymes before the line even ends.
• Keep one sound going. Pick a sound and stay on it for four lines or more: crown, down, around, ground. When the perfect rhymes run out, switch to the slant tab.
• Look past the first row. Common words come first, which also means everyone has used them. Fire and desire, heart and apart: scroll down for something listeners haven't heard a hundred times.
• Say each pair over the beat. The dictionary uses standard American pronunciation. Your accent may make a rhyme sound closer or further apart, so trust your ear over the list.
