Toronto has been heaven for a hip-hop fan in recent weeks. The city was the place to be for aspiring producers two weekends ago due to Sound Supremacy’s Battle of the Beatmakers
programming. The 2011 competition went down last Saturday at the Opera House, as 32 producers went head-to-head for a chance at $1000 cash, a feature in Urbanology magazine, and a number of other prizes.

Boi-1da (Kardinal Offishall, Drake, Eminem), &
Stalley.
