Urban Radio Nation

Recently kicking off on Audacy’s WBMX Chicago weekdays 10 a.m. – 2 p.m., the Rick Party syndication machine is now adding yet another top 12 market in Lotus Seattle’s KPLZ/STAR 101.5 for nights.

Lisa Adams, Program Director for KPLZ Seattle says, “I’m scoring one of the country’s best air talents for nights. This is a huge win for us. Rick’s on-air presentation is filled with warmth, charisma, energy, and personalized, localized, and topical content. Plus, no one can forget his incredible set of pipes!”

Gary Bernstein, President of Oceanic Tradewinds says, “Rick Party proves, once again, why he is arguably the most versatile and successful air personality in the country. After hitting #3 in Chicago last month with females on a fabulous throwback formatted station, Party is poised to showcase his skills on yet another major market station – KPLZ/STAR 101.5 in Seattle. Why settle when you can get Rick Party for cash or barter in virtually any format or any daypart.” The Rick Party Show syndication is a product of Oceanic Tradewinds in partnership with Compass Media Networks and is serving all flavors of CHR and Urban in all day parts.

Rick has voiced promos for Fox, ABC, and BET (as the signature voice for many years) and is now the voice for ESPN’s SportsCenter for weeknights as well as the newly minted voice for Audacy’s The Score in Chicago.

• WLBT anchor and meteorologist Barbie Bassett is no longer with the Jackson, Miss., NBC station after racially insensitive comments. In early March, Bassett was speaking with her fellow anchors on air about Snoop Dogg’s latest business venture, Snoop Cali Blanc, a new wine in his wine label. In response to a comment about putting a Snoop Dogg tattoo on her shoulder, Bassett said, “Fo shizzle, my nizzle.” Bassett is white. Charlamagne tha God defended Bassett as he discussed the situation on The Breakfast Club. “She might be old. She probably has no idea nizzle is a derivative of the N-word. That’s not a fireable offense. I hope she sues.”
