Superadio has partnered with Miles Ahead Broadcasting LLC to launch “Afrozons” hosted by ‘Shiela O’ Okonji-Ashinze into syndication.
Based at Crawford Broadcasting Hip Hop “Power 92” WPWX Chicago, the weekly program features a mix of Afrobeats and Hip Hop. Superadio notes that the show also features contributions from culture-connected and culture-adjacent personalities, providing expert insights and format related features. “AfroZons” targets the prime Adults 18-34 demographic, with a secondary focus on Adults 25-54.
Shiela O states, “I am excited to be part of the historical ‘first’ that brought Afro beats to mainstream terrestrial radio in the United States. Our goal was to showcase through the lens of music, fashion, and live shows our beautiful culture. We are thrilled about this partnership, which will help us amplify our mission to continue bringing Africa to the world on a larger platform.”
Superadio President Eric Faison said, “The Afrozons brand, with the syndicated radio show at its core, offers tremendous opportunities for affiliations, network radio, digital sales, and collaborative partnerships. It’s a big win for everyone!”
Miles Ahead Broadcasting CEO Sheila Eldridge added, “The time is NOW for fresh content and music that pays tribute to our culture in a contemporary format that targets a new audience for stations…Afrozons is that show! I’m honored that the experienced team at Superadio has the foresight and sees the vision.”
