• iHeartMedia ’90s outlet WMIA (Totally 93.9, All ’90s, All The Time)/Miami has acquired the talents of market icon DJ Laz to do afternoon drive, effective Monday, January 11. Laz joins a line-up that includes Mack In The Morning With Letty B from 6-10am, GiGi Diaz in middays and Michelle Fay from 7-midnight.

“DJ Laz is deeply rooted in Miami’s music scene and its rich culture and heritage,” said Brian Olson, President of iHeartMedia Miami. “It’s a pleasure to welcome DJ Laz and his passionate audience to iHeartRadio and Totally 93.9. His afternoon drive show is sure to become a familiar home for ’90s music fans.” Rob Miller, SVP of Programming for iHeartMedia Miami, remarked, “We are thrilled to bring Miami’s legendary DJ Laz to our hot new all-’90s format. DJ Laz is synonymous with the ’90s. Then and now, there is nobody more in tune with the music and vibe of our community than Laz. I can’t wait to hear his energy and interaction with our listeners every afternoon on Totally 93.9.”

Laz, a.k.a. Lazaro Mendez has been mixing and entertaining audiences all over South Florida since the mid-’80s and has collaborated with such artists as Pitbull, Flo Rida, Will Smith, Luther Campbell, 2 Live Crew and Gloria Estefan. His Miami radio career is highlighted by two decades in mornings on WPOW (Power 96), mornings on WRMA (DJ 106.7), and more recently, mornings on Cox Media Top 40 WFLC (HITS 97.3), as well as a stint at KXOL/Los Angeles.

“2020 reminded us to really appreciate all you have, especially health, family and real friends,” said DJ Laz. “I knew I loved my city, but I realized how much I missed being a part of my listeners’ daily lives. I can play for people all over the world, but it’s just not the same as in my hometown. So excited to launch my new afternoon show on Totally 93.9 — get ready, Miami for some fun on your drive home.”
