Having grown up when hip-hop was limited to like one show late at night on WOWI.

But when I moved to NYC there was Hot97 which was playing hip-hop all day, I started to miss my VA radio stations. Mainly, because those stations would play such a wide variety of black music all day. It would be nothing for a the Budda Brothers to go from playing 70s R&B to 90s hip-hop all in the same show. That was missing on hot97.

Then WOWI got bought, got rid of the local morning DJs are started playing syndicated shows like the breakfast club. I hate it.
