Bleu Collar & the Los Angeles Hip Hop community would like to encourage
you to help save independent Hip Hop in the West by simply clicking on
the petition link below so that we can let the higher ups know that we
support independent Hip-Hop in Southern California.
For the past 8 years the Fantastik Four Crew, which features DJs Mr. Choc
and J. Rocc, C-Minus and Truly OdD, have provided a critical outlet
for underground Hip-Hop in Southern California, the nation's second
largest market.
According to Fantastik 4our group members, there was no official
warning of the cancellation and that listeners will not receive
a farewell show.
As the radio market in the US becomes more monopolized it's harder
& harder for artists who aren't on major record labels to get exposure
on the air waves. Thus, you hear the same 16 songs when you turn on
the radio. Friday Night Flavas has filled that void for a decade & provided
many artists you see on MTV & BET now their first platform to get their
music to listeners.
While Power 106 has not indicated reasons for the cancellation of the
weekly three-hour show, industry insiders speculated that the reason for
the move is to make room for a more commercial oriented radio show.
After its inception, Friday Night Flavas experienced major success and
helped Power 106 to open its door to Hip-Hop and to their current
slogan "Where Hip-Hop Lives."
If Power 106 is where Hip Hop lives - Then they should embrace the
realest Hip Hop they have - Friday Night Flavas.
