Reason:

Not to say all points are equal, but most rounds pro came out ahead.

R1: Pro
Con's song honestly triggered a headache. Maybe it's as pro described in the next round, a "lack of exposure" to the medium.

R2: Pro
Something felt generic about pro's song, like I've heard it five times before from other artists; and yet cons song had a shortage of range, and the excessive use of the N word to seem edgy did it no favors.

R3: Pro
I can't guarantee this was intentional, but it was an excellent follow up to con's last song with a similar depression song but done right to a higher caliber.
Eminem is firmly who I would have expected to win. As a commenter on on the provided YouTube Link put it "Young Eminem, is like a fusion between a dictionary and a machine gun." But the quality of the music to back up the lyrics did not carry the day.

R4: Pro
That voice on pro's selection, damn, hard to believe human voices go that deep.
I was excited for the unique intro to con's choice, but the follow up felt uninspired; a rapper singing about murdering police, is like a country singer doing one about his truck running away; in both cases it is just doing what's expected, in a way that if not comedic it should be.

R5: Con
I actually prefer pro's song here (Eminem is one of the few rappers I've bought albums from); yet with him used earlier in this same debate (even with this being a much better song from him), and cons selection showing someone who apparently doesn't breathe, I'll give the point to con.
