Why mutiny rhymes the way it does
Mutiny is built around the tight /ɪ/ (/ɪ/); it's three-syllable and ends on an unbuttoned vowel. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 1 match, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 236, assonance 4,312, and consonance 86. That's a narrow strict column with a very deep slant well beneath it. Modern songwriting reads those slants as rhymes; the ear has been trained on them for a century. How to use it: hold the strict matches for the moments the listener expects, and use the slants to surprise where they don't. Mutiny pairs especially well with assonance because the vowel column is deeper than the consonant column.
