Multisyllabic rhymes

In rapping and poetry, multisyllabic rhymes (also known as compound rhymes, polysyllable rhymes, and sometimes colloquially in hip-hop as multis) are rhymes that contain two or more syllables An example is as follows:

This is my last race / I’m at a fast pace

Multisyllabic rhyme is used extensively in hip-hop, and is considered a hallmark of complex and advanced rapping, and artists are often praised for their multisyllabic rhymes by critics and fellow rappers. This is in contrast to its use in the majority of other forms of poetry, where multisyllabic rhyme is rarely used, apart from in comic verse where it is used for comic effect by poets such as Ogden Nash.
