Pros On The Loose: ‘TJ Smooth’

• And the COVID-19-related radio layoffs continue — Thomas “TJ Smooth” Johnson was doing nights for the past four years on Alpha Media Rhythmic WDHT (Hot 102.9)/Dayton, OH, and he tells us, “held the #1 spot for that time slot in the market.” Johnson was released last Friday and is now looking to get back on his feet.

Johnson started his radio career in 2011 back home on Long Island, working for JVC Broadcasting as an Asst. Promo Director/Promo Coordinator. In 2014 he crossed over to Cox Media Group as a member of their promotions team, and in July 2015 began doing part-time on-air for Top 40 WBLI.

“All in all, I love this business, I love entertaining people, and I hope to continue doing this in the very near future,” Johnson tells RAMP. “Thank so much again for your help. It is greatly appreciated, especially at this crucial time.” Potential employers can easily reach Johnson at thomas.tjjohnson24@gmail.com.
