Why dynamite rhymes the way it does
The phonology of dynamite is a three-syllable core: the gliding /aษช/ (/i/), then it ends with a clean stop.

The mix gives you options across the board. Strict rhymes for the structural beats, family or assonance for the interior lines. In practice: start at the top of the perfect column, scan family next, and reach for the assonance pool when the strict matches feel worn.
