Hip Hop Dreams: The 239

Local rappers participate in Mic Check Monday at 105.5 The Beat in Fort Myers. Mic Check Mondays was born after the station's program director, Scrap Jackson, left, put out an offer over the radio for local rappers to come spit a verse on air. He was shocked at the turnout. Almost 200 local artists came for the hopes of an opportunity. ?There?s so much to being successful in hip hop and it?s not just having talent,? said Scrap ?Scrappy? Jackson, a D.J. and program director at 105.5 The Beat. ?It?s having swagger, having a certain person carry that talent, team of people around you, create your own movement if you will, a street team and viral media to quantify to a record label.?
