* "Opheliac" by Music/EmilieAutumn uses the psychological version of the trope. "She speaks in third person/So that she can forget that she's me."
* Music/TimMinchin's ''Rock And Roll Nerd'' doesn't want to seem self-obsessed, so he writes his songs about himself in third person.
* Music/SouljaBoy Tell 'Em usually starts with his songs with "Soulja Boy Tell 'Em". (Nach.)
* This doesn't happen all the time, and it doesn't seem to happen as often as it once did, but it has been a recurring feature in rap/hip hop music for the lyrics to include the artist or group referring to themselves in third person. This often happened especially during the 1980s and 90s.
* "Whatever [[Music/JayZ Jigga]] say, Jigga probably do"
* Music/{{Eminem}} does this a lot.
* Music/{{MF DOOM}} tends to refer to himself as "he" or "DOOM".
* Music/{{Vocaloid}}: the singer of "Circus Monster" relates the events in third person until the last verse.
