Reason:

Michael had the better of the rhyming, the rhymes were reasonable throughout and landed in his flow well, even though the broad structure was more simple.

RM went for the more complex structure and ended up being all over the place. RM had multiple fizzles and multiple cases of simply to force words to rhyme. With bitch - with, game in; vibratin and ingrate don’t rhyme no matter how you bold them.

Neither sides insults were brilliant, RM used his obligatory insults, I f**** your girl, I have a big dick, you suck it, using the word “cuck” and references to semen (one Harry Potter reference from RM rap battle bingo). Not particularly inventive or novel, and the whole core wasn’t particularly funny, or particularly cutting.

Both sides focused more on trying to make words rhyme than focusing on core insults or disses that landed 1-2-3 punches which meant a lot of the final drops felt out of place.

While RM had more insults, in general that were more profane, they weren’t substantively better than some of K’s more high brow references. Though they had their moments - Scrotum whack would have won on its own if used in a better build up.

Humourous and cutting insults, quality and complexity of rhymes (together with fizzles) followed by general flow (provided it doesn’t hinder my ability to follow rhymes) are primarily how I score these.

Given what I’ve said about insults, these are a tie, KM rhymes better and fewer fizzles and his rhyming pattern while simple, didn’t interfere with following his rhymes whilst RMs did.

This was kinda close, so I can’t really score this more than one point either way - but KM just edges this - by one point

Reason:

I would say that RM had better roasts and insults, but KM and amazing flow/rhythm. I personally think I would give KM the win on this one.

Reason:

I'd say this was a tie. Pro roasted Con a lot but his rap didn't flow well. Con had great flow but his lines were not that good.

Reason:

OMG, the vocabulary an literary genius has to go to Con but I literally mumbled the word oh dang when I heard some of pros lines. Too close

Reason:

RM’s was super vulgar but he had way better roasts, KM had good ones too though and his flow and rhythm was better, I can’t choose
