HipHop Around The Lake – Music

Lake Okeechobee and the cities around it like Clewiston, Harlem, Pahokee and Belle Glade aren’t the Florida pictured in tourist guides. Life in these parts can be rough indeed (Belle Glade was once used by the State Department to train employees for Third World conditions), but the area is a hotbed for athletic talent and music talent. The Big O Hip-Hop is a site dedicated to the rap music of the Lake Okeechobee region, and is well worth checking out.
