Why baron rhymes the way it does

The rhyme map for baron starts at the vowel โ€” the open /ษ’/, IPA /ษ’/ โ€” and ends where the line lets the nasal carry the tail. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 3 matches, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 52, assonance 6,674, and consonance 122. 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. The songwriter's move is to pick a small set of strict rhymes for the chorus and open up to family and assonance through the verses. Baron rewards slant rhyming because the strict pool, when over-used, calls attention to itself.
