Want to know what rhymes with recompense?
When you're writing a song, rhyming words are as important as melody and lyrics
Some songs can get by with just a hook, but true hit records use creative rhymes to create interesting lyrical hooks and melodies
But there's two catches when it comes to rhyming words
The first catch is obvious--there are no hard and fast rules concerning what sounds good in rap music, country music, rock n' roll, etc
But the second catch keeps songwriters from getting the right rhymes: finding "themes" or rhyme families that naturally sound like certain genres of music while avoiding others
The problem with most rhyming dictionaries is they're not targeted to your specific genre of music! Even if they have themes you need, they don't give you enough variety to be truly useful. With Chorus, we find you only those rhymes which are useful for songwriters, so you know that the words we give you are singable and work for the genre you're writing in
Here are a few rhymes for you to sample. If you want to use the app's full functionality, including the ability to create your own rhymes, you can sign up for the full version of Chorus now.
