WPGC

Well I hadn't listened to WPGC for some time, but Katy Perry and Bruno Mars? This is no longer Donnie Simpson's station!

wowww
you serious? Is he gone from there?
I remember that cat used to be on BET back in the day "Video Soul" I used to skip school sometimes just to watch him. He was great.
My former boss (J J Wright-103.3 W O D S-Boston, Ma) My former boss J J Wright looks like him. I used to intern for J J Wright at KISS 108 in Boston (CHR) I also sued to skip school to listen to J J Wright show because they used to have morning mixes on his show.

I knew when they made that Jason Kidd dude from Baltimore, it wouldn't be long.

 

[Scholarm1111]

Well, I think Big Tigger is doing mornings now and yes Katy Perry's "Last Friday Night" seems to be on a 2 hour rotation right now on WPGC. Bruno Mar's latest hit is as well but that one does have some rapping on it.

Yeah, it reverted back to its original "CHRurban" status to take on Hot 99.5 whiling maintaining its battle with WKYS.

FAIL.....

FAIL.....

I don't know if you call that a fail exactly. WPGC is back into the top 10 in the overall 6+ for DC market, and that's the highest position they been since early 2007. WPGC, and inadvertently WKYS, gotten proactive to adding urban hits (prior to them becoming Billboard R&B/Hip-Hop top 10 fixtures) compared to what they used to be.

 

[Scholarm1111]

For years and years they were often number 1, if I recall correctly.

 

[Scholarm1111]

That was pre-ppm of course.

I just meant fail as far as what I like.

Oh alright. I feel you on that. WPGC in its "Urban Contemporary-lean" was more appropriate for my tastes. They spun some rhythmic tracks but it was overall urban in feel.
