Notable users
During a 2011 Reddit AMA, American musical comedian Bo Burnham mentioned RhymeZone when asked if he uses any websites to help him write lyrics.[4]
Comedian Stephen Colbert wrote the following lyrics: "If you’re going to run in Texas, you can’t be a liberal man / Maybe that kind of thing would fly up way up in Spokane / Sometimes I’ll eat a pecan, with my friend Tarzan / Do you see how easy it was, not to rhyme man with man? / Finding good rhymes can be tough, on that we are agreed / I recommend rhymezone.com, they’ve got the rhymes you need / And sometimes lines don’t have to rhyme, they can end in different sounds / Just don’t rhyme a word with the same word, also Ted Cruz sucks."[5]
