Talus Takes Command of Hot 98.7 & The Lou/STL
• Audacy welcomes major market veteran Tani “Talus” Robbin-Coker as Brand Manager of Urban Hot 98.7 (KEZK-HD2) and Urban AC WFUN (96.3 The Lou)/St. Louis.
“We’re incredibly excited to bring Talus into the Audacy St. Louis team to shape content strategy, champion talent and steer operations and branding for Hot 98.7 and 96.3 The Lou,” said Becky Domyan, SVP/Market Manager, Audacy St. Louis and Wichita. “His deep industry experience, creative instincts and forward-thinking approach make him the ideal leader to guide these two powerhouse brands. I’m confident he’ll bring fresh energy and meaningful connection to our listeners and the broader community.”
With a career than spans more than two decades, Robbin-Coker, the artist formerly known as Talus Knight, previously served as Executive Producer and Co-Host of The Morning Rush With Claudia Jordan on Service Broadcasting’s KRNB (Smooth R&B 105.7) until Nov. 2017.
In Oct. 2014 he was named PD of Cumulus Urban KKND (Power 102.9)/New Orleans, and was elevated to Operations Manager two years later. Knight earlier did mornings on Urban WFXM (Power 107.1)/Macon, GA, while serving as OM for the Urban, Urban AC and Gospel stations in the cluster. His prior on-air and programming stops include WCDX/Richmond, VA, WENZ/Cleveland and WHTA/Atlanta. While at Cox Media Group Miami in 2022, Knight forged a partnership with Triller to launch the sold-out Trillerfest, headlined by Lil Wayne, Timbaland and Swizz Beatz.
“Joining the Audacy St. Louis family represents an incredible opportunity, and I’m grateful to Becky Domyan for her trust and leadership,” said Robbin-Coker. “With the strategic guidance of Dave Richards, Skip Dillard and Mike Street, we’re positioned to strengthen our community presence and create an innovative environment that resonates with listeners across St. Louis. I look forward to building on the strong foundation already in place.”
