Sunni belongs to the two-syllable group; its vowel is the clipped /ษช/, and it ends on an unbuttoned vowel. The lyric tradition treats it as a lit word. The line containing it usually wants to lift.

Why sunni rhymes the way it does
Pull sunni apart phonetically and you get a two-syllable word with the short /ษช/ (/ษช/) as the rhyme-bearing vowel; the close ends on an open vowel. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 2 matches, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 1707, assonance 5,052, and consonance 0. 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. 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. A lyric that uses only strict rhymes for sunni tends to read as dated; the contemporary ear forgives โ and often prefers โ the slant.
