The new 92.3/96.7 The Beat is adding its first local show with DJ Scream starting Monday, December 12 from 7 p.m. to 11 p.m.

According to a press release:

The DJ Scream and Hoodrich Radio show will kick off with special celebrity appearances, custom mixes, and the daily music countdown show, The 8 o'clock Beatdown. The program will feature DJ Scream, a popular on-air personality who is known for connecting listeners with new music from established and rising Hip Hop and R&B artists. The program will broadcast exclusive interviews with notable names in music, as well as DJ Scream's take on entertainment news and pop culture.

The Beat, which debuted November 11 in the ultra-crowded Atlanta R&B/hip-hop radio world by IHeartMeida, added New York based syndicated show The Breakfast Club Monday. That show had previously aired on Streetz 94.5, which has since added its own local show featuring Yung Joc and Mo Quick.

Sirius XM's Hip Hop Nation will continue to broadcast the uncut and uncensored version of Hoodrich Radio every Wednesday from 10 p.m. to midnight EST.

DJ Scream, a Decatur native, had previously worked at Hot 107.9.  He has done mixtapes for artists such as Young Jeezy, Outkast, The Game, and Gucci Mane.
