how? there were other stations any they did not do those numbers. just give credit where it's due b...they took risks and came out on top.
as she said hip hop wasn't even mainstream when they started phasing it in.

i did give her credit
BUT real talk
kiss & BLS only did hip hop on the late night weekends (Hot9 went all day hip hop like in '92 and it did decent numbers until like i said wu, nas & biggie) by '95 they was on top

how you gave her credit when you said anyone could have did those numbers? you basically saying she had no influence on the come up
the fact that they actually ramped it up with hip hop is taking a risk. hip hop was not mainstream at that time. building a strong radio station that dominates the charts is bigger than some good hip hop albums coming out b. you sound stupid

After Ed Lover left, it was Fatman Scoop and Miss Jones doing the morning show for about 6 months or so. I remember it being okay with them on. But like Tracy said, Star and and Buc came on before them at 5am just so they can get ready to take over. I believe March or April of 2000 was when Star and Buc had the full morning show.
wow.... this is like the polar opposite of..
like if Rock and Sean Price (rip) from Heltah Skeltah was on the breakfast club.
It's still ill cause I never imagined they would sound like that
