Baka Boyz Launch Into Daily Radio
• The Baka Boyz are launching into daily radio, starting today, as Sierra H Broadcasting Classic Hip Hop KZCE (101.1 The Bounce)/Phoenix inks the Bakas (Eric & Nick Vidal) for afternoon drive. John Candelaria, Director of Content for The Bounce & KAJM (Mega 104.3), said, “We are excited to have the Baka Boyz Bouncin’ in the Valley! I haven’t heard energy like this in a long time. Their passion and excitement jumps out the speakers. Their successful years of experience combined with their top-notch, innovative attention to digital content makes them a perfect fit for 101.1 the Bounce.”
Eric (right) and Nick (left) commented, “It’s time for us to raise the bar and get listeners talking about their favorite radio station and radio personalities once again. Thanks to all the programming executives who have encouraged us to jump back into daily radio, and we can’t think of anything sweeter than kicking it all off with John ‘Candy’ in Phoenix.”
Gary Bernstein, the Baka’s agent/syndicator, said, “The Baka Boyz are undeniably one of the best ever to perform on the radio. What better time than now to assist a medium desperately in need of more authentic stars and creative personalities that really matter. As current hosts of the most successful contemporary weekend mix programs in both the hip hop and pop formats, the Baka Boyz prove time and time again that they are on top of what’s happening today, tomorrow and yesterday. Who else can say that?”
Plans for daily Content-Only syndication are being discussed through a partnership between Bernstein’s Oceanic Tradewinds and Compass Media Networks. For more info, contact Nancy Abramson at nabramson@compassmedianetworks.com or Gary Bernstein at gary@oceanictradewinds.com.
