In setting the record straight on Jay-Z’s “Open Letter” claim that President Obama sanctioned his trip to Cuba, White House Press secretary Jay Carney quipped that “I guess nothing rhymes with Treasury.”

While we are totally supporting this very articulate and snarky rebuttal, complete with the Lincoln bedroom side-eye, we do have to correct him on a minor point: LOTS of things rhyme with “treasury.” In fact, we’ve found several examples where some of raps finest have found a way to weave the noun into a rhyme, along with some of our poetic proposals for good measure.

T.I. “I’m Illy”
“blowin’ that celery
Stack that cash like the U.S. Treasury”

Mos Def, “Double Trouble”
I shot the sherriff, the deputy, and head of bank treasury
So mounties in the county got a BIG bounty stressin me on “double trouble”

Talib Kweli “Sweet Memories”
I got deep into my mind, see I got a treasury
That float through my head like a sweet melody

Talib “Down For The Count”
When the slugs let go like Frankie Beverly
Forever we stack notes like the treasury, flow heavenly

AZ “How Ya Livin”
American Me, elegancy, treasury
Wit the hopes to be rich before they bury me

Charli 2na, “The Influence”
Yo, easily 2na be, cleverly swelling my treasury
Vocal pedigree for you critics who try to measure me

Papoose – “Thug Connection”

Pinnacle definitely, hold so much jewels in my miracle memory
It’s like I’m a physical treasuryDeep into weaponry, psychotic niggas who envy me

Not to mention…

“Cheddar breeds..”

“Whether we…”

“Better be..”

“Jealousy…”

“Heavily…”

“Revelry…”

“Never leave…”

and even “Heather B!”… watch our interview with the MC/Radio host where she talks about being married to one of Nas’s rhyme partners, Horse.
