I have no doubt he will win!”
Fisher said, “I’m honored and thankful to be given this opportunity to take such a huge step in my career. I began my radio journey with the purpose of having fun and seeing the world. This is going to be an incredible addition to that journey. Dennis and his staff have a great thing going and I’m beyond excited to join our Beasley fam in Las Vegas!” Fisher succeeds John Candelaria, who in April was named PD of Beasley Classic Hip Hop WMGC (105.1 The Bounce)/Detroit.
