Last week, CapCityHipHop teamed up with Ottawa producer Robby Bronson to present the #SoCapCityChallange. In total, 46 Ottawa rappers (3 female artists and 43 male artists) took part in the challenge, but only one could take home the win.

CapCityHipHop has announced that the winner is Ottawa’s own Frank Blak for “breaking down why he’s So Cap City.” For winning the #SoCapCityChallenge, Frank received $200 and exclusive rights to the beat produced by Robby Bronson which was used in the contest.

The winner was selected by a committee of judges made up of members from CapCityHipHop, HipHopCanada and Bronson. Judges submitted three choices with the main criteria being Ottawa related content, flow and delivery. The three main finalists were Frank Blak, Capé and Arty Warhol.
