Houston’s Vibe Comes Alive
• Amir Diamond (right) is the son of Kandi Eastman of Radio One’s KMJQ (Majic 102.1) and MC Spice (The Wendy Williams Experience). He began his broadcasting career in 2011 and has worked at 97.9 The Box and KROI (RadioNow 92.1). “I’m super excited to be joining The Vibe, powered by KTSU 90.9FM Radio,” Diamond said. “It’s a dope concept that’s young, fun and fresh! I’ve worked, attended summer camps and had my first college experience at Texas Southern University, so it feels amazing to be back home on the Tiger Walk. LET’S GO!”
• “It’s an exciting time for TSU Radio!” said Steve Nice (above, right), who previously worked on the DL Hughley Radio Show at Service Urban KKDA (K104)/Dallas. “The Vibe is definitely what’s needed not only for our TSU/3rd Ward community, but for the city of Houston. This was the first station to play my mixes on the air while I was attending school/playing football. It gave me the drive to continue radio from that point forward. It’s only right that I give my talents back to the school that gave me a shot!”
GM Ernest Walker said, “The Vibe’s new lineup of jocks and personalities is a recipe for a success. We at KTSU are excited to evolve and serve our entire community by engaging a younger demographic and by using KTSU The Choice as a blueprint for quality programming. I’m excited for our new Vibe team to change the game for Houston radio, all while keeping our nearly 50-year legacy of excellence alive.”
