I tell ya,,I'm a radio sucka and I love listening 2 radio personalities alot. I listen to Ladies Night and Angie Martinez alot but if you want me to choose who really make my day and put a big grin? I'd have 2 say its Funkmaster Flex, man that cat is just crazy as hell and he's funny too lol besides, I love his positive and earthy vibe.

The Electrifying Mojo was really cool while I was growing up!

I also appreciate Rosetta Hines of Detroit; she is currently on the air and is the ONLY one who plays "Xpectation" by Prince. She is a lovely lady.

I miss Eddie Love.

In Junior High, I used to love listening to Power 106 (Los Angeles) Baka Boyz in the morning (back in 1995). They would play the best old school electro-hip hop and songs that I loved.

Big Boy used to be cool to listen to in the morning on PWR 106 back in the day.

I used to really enjoy Julio G (KKBT 92.3 The Beat Circa 1995). He was an old DJ from KDAY 1580AM and I loved his Battle of the Beats segment and his saturday night old school show. He was the bomb.

Dominique Duprima was cool. I loved the "Street Science" shows. She'd talk about issues that were affecting the urban community. One show of hers I really enjoyed was "Gay 'N' The Hood" and she talked about gay & lesbians in the inner city and their take on things. The callers were always lively!

I miss GrooveRadio 103.1 that was one of the best radio stations of all time. I used to listen to that station religiously!

GILLES PETERSON BBC Radio 1

(The Evil) Star on NY's Hot 97. He's a hater, but he's funny and so flippin' over the top it's crazy. (Okay, he took it WAY over the top with the Aaliyah thing. And that wasn't funny! )

I get a kick out of him because I don't take much of what he says very seriously. He's a shock jock, that's what they do.

I still love Theo... I know he is corny but I love him!
