Show Notes

Groundwaves is in full swing at the Medium in Springdale. 

The monthly hip-hop open mic event gives local rappers, beat makers and spoken word poets a venue to share their work on a Tuesday night. Then on Wednesday, the performers get a one-on-one mentoring session with professional rapper, Murs. 

Music writer Monica Hooper talks to Murs and one of his mentees about Groundwaves and how the program is progressing this season.
