Yeah, the rumor I heard is that Victor Starr's contract is up, and Neke will be assuming his job. Pork Chop's new voice sounds good, kinda healthier, although at first you might not even recognize him. And I definitely agree about Rap Attack since PC left, it's just not the same. I listened to it before he was on there and it's fine, but I really just haven't been able to listen to it at all much lately. That new girl co-host really isn't a good fit, IMO.

I haven't heard from Stay Gettin' about it in a while, but it seems like the Young Leek project hasn't had much progress with Def Jam lately, it's been months since they last promised that the video was coming soon. I don't think Next Level moved on per se, since I don't think he's been part of NL since he signed with Def Jam, I think it's more like after Young Leek moved on from NL, they've started trying to replicate his success with all these other teen rappers they've got (Deuce Tre Deuce, Tay-Eazy, A-Maz-On, Prince). I've got nothing but respect for K-Swift but it's kinda messed up how most of the local MCs you hear on 92Q these days are kiddie rappers on her label.

I hadn't realized that there was a girl on Rap Attack...WOW! Thats good.....I love to see female representation.

...as long as she is not like K-Swift (not picking, but hers is the most flagrant example) and either co-signs or ignores/laughs off the foul/disgusting stuff that Swirrel Wide says out his mouth.

I would have to say something in response to insistence on calling women "noodles" and "smuts" on-air. WTF is that at 7:00 PM? anyways...I choose to not listen. ......Love Swirrel to death tho!!!

To each his/her own, but there are alot of lil gurls that take their cues for how to deal with men from the adults they admire, respect and see/hear regularly.

Ima give the new RA show a chance.....change is good. it may take me a while to get used to it....I STILL think they may want to revamp it tho...it's time. Listen to how CS show sounds....not that they should copy (by no means), but it sounds way more entertaining or listen to DC stations...there personalities & DJs are the best.


Thanks for the YL info...mmh mmh mmh!!

all I can say is ....in most jobs...what she does in NOT ALLOWED under NO uncertain circumstances.

...most professionals must disclose when they can use their day job/ politicial position/influence to benefit them (particularly, financially).


In my job.... a MD must disclose when he owns stock in the company that makes the medicine we are testing. If we (the supossedly unbiased) prove the medicine is safe or lets say can be used for a new disease....the company will make money...they stock will increase in value and the MD will make more money. But what if he lies...what if he fudges numbers to make it look better (i.e. SPINS).....you not only can't trust the data, but you can't trust him.


92 Q is pushing this club hop biz hard because it benefits the people that work at the station that have side entertainment enterprises. They all do....KS just makes it obvious ..........why would Duece Tre Deuce be on the radio (LIVE) at 8:00 PM freestyling? LOL! They were? That's when I knew for sure something isn't right with the Q.

But hey....I'm not mad at her....its just not fair to ppl who I know work hard to play the game...yet based on what I've seen still have little to NO chance getting their music on the radio.

They don't even try to hide the fact that if you are not with them you are no where....LOL!

Production and artists are all in-house.

I have never seen any of these boy bands at real RAP shows. WOW! How can you not come out to one....even if its just to say to yourself how much better than you are than everyone else?


Oh then again...........most of these groups are made up of ppl under 18...so they prolly can't come



This isn't even politics (politicians at least make you feel like you matter to them)......this is its own breed of injustice.

I have a lot of respect for K-Swift's evolution....I don't know her well enough to say much more.

On the few occasions that I made her acquaintance.....she was not very approachable.

I was kinda blown because before I got involved in the music scene...I was a fan.

I thought she had a pretty cool personality.


I'm just gonna sit back and see how all this works itself out.

Thanks for reading and commenting!

Yeah, good point, C Love. I think you're coming from the same place as me, having started as a fan and still kinda looking up to these people, even when it seems like the way they're doing things isn't all good. I even kinda addressed the situation a little in my Best Of Baltimore blurb for K-Swift's Best Club DJ award, but it kind of deserves some serious examination.
