Rap Rhyming Dictionary

Rap Rhyming Dictionary

Really good rappers and poets only break out the rhyme-dictionary sometimes. In most cases your better off generating your own list of rhyming words and phrases for what you're trying to rhyme with. Tips on rhyming and writng rhymes can be found in The Rapper's Handbook.

Let's take a line from Slick Rick for example. This is from "The Auditorium" with Mos Def. His line is:

Sit, come and relax, riddle off the mac,
It's the patch, I'm a soldier in the middle of Iraq,

Slick Rick never could have written that line with a rhyming dictionary. He rhymes "relax" with "mac" with "patch" with "Iraq." Off all of those, only "Iraq" and "mac" show up in a rhyming dictionary. So you're better off working off your own mind, using slant rhyme, and picking up The Rapper's Handbook.
