Radio One Stations Make Lineup Changes After Round Of Layoffs

Lance Ventaby Lance Venta
February 20, 2025

Radio One Urban1 Reach MediaAfter company-wide layoffs earlier this month, a number of Radio One stations have made lineup changes to fill the gaps in the schedule.

Reports earlier this month pegged the cuts at affecting five percent of all employees at parent Urban 1.

Starting in Dallas at Hip Hop “97.9 The Beat” KBFB where Peter ‘P-Skillz’ Dorsey has exited as host of “The Flight Zone” in afternoons after seven years at the station. Dorsey joined KBFB in 2018 as night host before moving to afternoons in 2023. Reach Media’s “Posted On The Corner” hosted by Incognito and DJ Misses moves from nights to afternoons, while “Toxic Boy Radio With Hollywood Zay And Dj Papa Ron” moves from weekends to nights.

At Hip Hop “97.9 The Box” KBXX Houston, morning co-host Keisha Nicole has also added middays replacing the cancelled “Amanda Seales Show”. Jessica Jeanz, who was also part of the morning show and hosted “The Power Hour” from 11pm-12am, is no longer listed on the schedule.

Keisha Nicole will also add middays at “Hot 100.9” WHHH Speedway/Indianapolis IN. It marks a return to the station, where she hosted afternoons until moving to Houston in 2017. She succeeds Shayna Sawyers, who exited but continues in middays at LM Communications “107.9 The Beat” WBTF Lexington KY.

At Sports “107.5/93.5 The Fan” WIBC-HD2 Indianapolis, a pair of hosts have been let go. Andy Sweeney exited as co-host of “The Wake Up Call with KB & Andy” alongside Kevin Bowen. Sweeney joined the station in August 2023 after serving as PD/afternoon host of Union Broadcasting’s “ESPN 680” WHBE Louisville. Jimmy Cook exited as co-host of the 12-3pm “Query & Company” with Jake Query.

“101.1 The Wiz” WIZF Erlanger KY/Cincinnati makes changes in three dayparts. The WRNB Philadelphia based Rodney ‘Supreme’ Maybin, who had been a producer/co-host for The Amanda Seales Show replaces WCKX Columbus’ DJ Nailz. “Posted On The Corner” moves from nights to afternoons to fill the opening created by Tropikana’s departure last August. ‘Nella D’ Allen, who most recently had been filling-in afternoons with weekend host DJ EZ, moves to nights.

Moving up Ohio to “Power 107.5” WCKX Columbus, the station debuted “The Morning Hustle” in January to replace Amanda Seales. APD Marc ‘DJ Nailz’ Dixon, who co-hosted Seales’ show and afternoons locally moves to midday’s replacing Leah Henry’s “Leah’s Lemonade” as she was affected by the layoffs. Posted In The Corner moves up from nights to afternoons, while evenings are vacant on the station’s website.

“Z107.9” WENZ Cleveland sees APD/MD Rochelle ‘Ro Digga’ Frazier move from afternoons to middays as Micah Dixon exits. Posted In The Corner rises from nights to afternoons, while evenings are vacant.

Lastly at Hot AC “Mix 107.9” WLNK Charlotte, Holly Haze returns to the midday slot she held prior to the station’s rebrand in April 2021 from nights. Drew Parham, who had joined the station then, moves to weekends. Program Director Neal Sharpe comes on air to host nights.
