Hot 97 has fell off for a while and their main asset - Summer Jam - has been wack for some time now. A lot of people there - Ebro, Flex, etc. - spend way too much time obsessed with Power 105. It's like Fox Sports people being obsessed with what ESPN does and Fox News with MSNBC and CNN. They have to get over themselves. And for the last few years, Ebro and them were mad that Power 105's been syndicated and mainstream, yet Ebro and Rosenberg have gone mainstream.
At the same time, Power 105's fallen off a ton since going on Revolt and becoming syndicated. Their appeal has just dipped to me. It's all about clickbait and the interviews are ****. The Donkey of the Day's are stupid. They're dumbed down
I've felt for a long time that Ebro thinks his opinion is more important than it is...at least as far as thinking he knows NYC tastes. Where do I get radio shows inspired by Stretch and Bobbito these days? I'd take a Sway and Tech spiritual successor in a heartbeat too.
i don't really listen to radio that much anymore. but your best bet would probably be something like statik selektah on shade 45. sometimes i hear those. or earl & knowledge on red bull radio. that's probably my favorite but it's more eclectic. there's others but i'm just not thinking of them right now.

Sounds like I need to get a Sirius account. I appreciate these options, because I don't rock the radio at all any more. Just bump my own mixes or podcasts.

nah Pusha's been quiet about all of this. No scandals with him. In fact, I think he was working with David Arquette on a film or something to push prison reform.

i don't bother with the radio either. If I hear about an album online, I'll just cop it and listen to it a couple times.
I watch some of the interviews, but that's it.

That whole morning show was a disgrace when I used to listen to it back in Jersey. Laura offers absolutely nothing to the show. Only cat I liked was Shani Kulture.

Yeah it might've sounded extra but with Push I meant his album specifically. He's not canceled but can't mess with him if he's still rocking with Ye professionally and Ye does all his production.

The whole Nas stuff is getting deeper and deeper by the minute. But hey what can you expect from a guy who said he would whoop anybody’s ass who had a problem when Gwenyth Paltrow said the N word...

Love me some Scottie Beam but she gone. Laura younger than me. How did she get that gig? She’s trash, but fire physically

Pusha T is president of G.O.O.D Music.
Pusha last 5+ projects had Kanye all over it.
