    perfect rhymes are like cat and rat easily predictable rhymes they have the same vowel and consonant
    which is short a and t consonant

    assonance is just rhyming the same syllable sounds

    so a assonance rhyme for cat would be rhyming can and cat both have different consonants
    n and t but have the same vowel sound which is short a vowel sound.

    i like assonance rhymes because it helps u avoid rhyming words that has been rhyme before by thousands of other mc's

    because by definition
    a rhyme is anything that matches in sound
    so technically just rhyming the vowel sound is considered a rhyme.

    all the greats use this technique

    jay-z notorious big makaveli nas az kool g rap big punisher big l dmx scarface ice cube etc

    to me assonance does that for me because to many times i hear mc's used force multis.

    and sacrifice the content and write lines that don't make any sense.
    just for the sake of a multi-syllable rhyme.

    and also they rhyme words that have been rhymed by thousands of other mc's

    which is wack imo
