"It was a no brainer when we got the call and I think it just helps us continue the marathon that he was always talking about and then also continue his legacy and what he's done through his music to his community around and hopefully the country," said Small.Organizers say they're donating an eight-week Reading with a Rapper program to Crete Academy.
