Words that rhyme with Exhibit
In phonetic terms, exhibit is a three-syllable anchor on the high /ษช/, which shuts cleanly on a stopped consonant. It's a word everyone uses โ which is what makes it powerful in a lyric. Engine returns: there are essentially no strict perfect rhymes, the family column is blank, the assonance column dwarfs the others. Lyric returns: a word the lyric earns weight from by context. Treat the assonance list as the main shelf โ the strict column is the footnote.

Why exhibit rhymes the way it does
Exhibit sits on the short /ษช/, transcribed /ษช/ in our engine, and ends with a clean stop. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 0 matches, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 59, assonance 11,461, and consonance 36. 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. 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 exhibit tends to read as dated; the contemporary ear forgives โ and often prefers โ the slant.
