Hitting The Road

R-O-A D T-R-I-P!!!!Before I boarded the airplane, I ran into Chubb Rock who still lives up to his name! He “rocks” the mic in concert and on-air at Atlanta’s WAJM. Shout out to Chubb for his volunteer work with the Wounded Warrior Project.” He’s a prime example of showing appreciation for the sacrifice and service of our military warrior and their families.

Phun in Philly:  It’ s always a pleasure to visit places you love to see folks you know that can also be called  friends. WDAS was a stop early in my radio career. Under the tutelage of Butterball and Patty Jackson, I learned, I learned, learned!! Fast forward to 2013, Patty rules the airwaves, my “hermanita” Mina is in great hands and  DC Corbett is a stellar leader, as evidenced in the recent PPM . An ingredient in the seasoning of his “sauce for success” is the Thursday night “Old School” Quiet Storm…..it will definitely “take you there!”
