Musical rhythm (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

beat

'musical rhythm' is the definition.
(synonyms)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for beat that I've seen before include "Defeat; pulsate" , "Strike (a drum)" , "Do better than another in competition" , "Thrash with rhythm?" , "Thrash; pulse" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
