On behalf of all of us here at The Pepper Zoo and the Mannie Fresh RAW Talent Search, we would like to thank all of the contestants who competed in this contest.
For those of you who have not been following the contest, we will give you a little heads up on the progress of it. After the final review of muic samples that were sent in, we selected 5 finalists. Once the selection of finalists was completed, the finalists received an invitation to compete in the final round. The final round consisted of a video competition with the finalists, of which we selected an overall winner. The Pepper Zoo will sponsor the overall top two winners. The top five winners' singles will be included in the Black Pepper Zoo Mixtape featuring Mannie Fresh. With over 20,000 entries, it was hard to choose ONE winner. The overall winner was chosen based on voting poll results of the final video round, musical talent, efforts that were put into the contest, and personality. Without further ado, The Pepper Zoo X Mannie Fresh have selected Rock Em Sock Em Robots as the official winner of the talent search contest! In a close second place, is BBC. Congratulations!
Rock Em Sock Em Robots is a group based out of Texas, with a real street vibe to their music. The main members Dekstar and Swisar, describe their music as "kind of like two MC's stepping into the ring and battling it out over a beat with a mix of East Coast hip-hop and West Coast rap."
BBC is a group based out of Arizona, with a combination of talents through hip hop and R&B. Blayne R and Yung Trillionaire have opened for artists such as Soulja Boy and New Boyz. They take a unique approach to their musical talent by incorporating hip hop with a R&B twist.
All of our five finalists will be featured on the upcoming mixtape hosted by Mannie Fresh. Once again, thanks to all of the talented contestants who entered and be on the look out for the next contest! We will be contacting the winners in regards to sponsorship/promotions, etc.
