So?
Angie is really trying to fool yall into thinking shes more than what she is. Shes fukking 43 fam. Theres no way to twist that. Jay is the artist He has that card to do whatever he wants with the music.
Angie is trying to score a talk show like Wendy....and for that I salute Wendy cause thats the right move to make.
TBC is clearly younger but even still Char and Envy ain't young enough to TRULY connect with younger music talent. Morning shows follow different age targets though.
She is a groupie. She's an old groupie with a voice you treat like your own mothers who can seem to do no wrong.
So stop caping for angie as if she does nothing more than talk with that old haggard voice of hers trying to pretend shes at homie blasting shyt college freshmen listen to
Wendy moved on to pop culture at large, and toned down cause she was the most hated personality on hiphop radio.
No artists wanted to fukk with her, she stopped getting interviews and her show on 107.5 feel to tumbleweed.
If a big artist is going to/needs to do an interview. Angie can guaranteed get that interview. That has always been her angle, no she doesn't break new artists/music that's what the DJs do. She's not a DJ.
If morning shows target different listeners than what does a PM rush hour show target? PM rush you don't get the high schoolers getting dressed like in the AM.
But anyway all this is besides the point--
Troy ave gets plenty of play on NYC radio. Way too much for an unsigned artist. His advantage is he actually fukks with NY DJs. he stays promoting them, having them do his shows etc. so they fukk with him.
With all these other artists though it's different. In an age where the south dominates and nobody gives a fukk about a NY DJ anymore it's like their pull has become obscure. That's why even NY artists aren't going after NY DJ cosigns. NY DJs can't even break Troy past a certain level
Hot 97 as heavy as it was, is dying, 105 isn't that far behind. Outside of the interviews nobody fukks with the radio. But being how major these stations are you have corporations stepping in and now all they play is highly, highly commercial singles. Like that drunk in love would literally get played 3x in a single hour.
