In a song, the word is a word everyone uses. Behind it, the rhyme map shows the strict column is unhelpful here, nothing lands in the family-rhyme column, and the vowel-match pool carries the volume.

Why bandwidth rhymes the way it does
Bandwidth is built around the short /ษช/ (/ษช/); it's two-syllable and lets the line dissolve into a fricative. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 0 matches, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 11, assonance 6,719, and consonance 0. That's a narrow strict column with a very deep slant well beneath it. Modern songwriting reads those slants as rhymes; the ear has been trained on them for a century. Practical: skim the strict column first and pick the two or three matches you can sing without thinking. Then move to assonance for the in-between lines. Bandwidth reads as more memorable when the strict matches are reserved for the line endings that matter most.
