Words that rhyme with Brie
You can read brie two ways: as a quotidian anchor, or as a one-syllable shape on a tight high-vowel /iห/ that opens out at the end. Its everydayness lets the song surprise around it. Songwriters reach for it as a stop-by-stop-grocery-shelf word. You won't run short of perfect rhymes, family rhymes come up empty, and the slant pool, matched on vowel alone, is huge. There's enough in the strict column to write a verse without leaving it.

Why brie rhymes the way it does
Brie is built around a high-front /iห/ (/iห/); it's one-syllable and doesn't close on a consonant at all. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 139 matches, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 1041, assonance 2,306, and consonance 0. That's a deep perfect column. The song can ride strict rhymes from end to end, only sliding into assonance when the line needs to surprise. In practice: start at the top of the perfect column, scan family next, and reach for the assonance pool when the strict matches feel worn. A lyric that uses only strict rhymes for brie tends to read as dated; the contemporary ear forgives โ and often prefers โ the slant.
