DJ DDT of FM98 WJLB’s “What’s Next on the Menu” program shares his thoughts on the proposed WJLB boycott below (also from MySpace):
A lotta misguided people in the city are yelling JLB isn’t supporting Detroit shit… It’s making me mad, because it’s hurting artists in Detroit who market their shit, or artists who have a fanbase…if that’s the case, I may as well not have a show, and the songs that ARE in regular rotation may as well be taken off…
…before you reply to this and say that we’re not supporting YOU, answer this:
Have you sent music to the radio station?
Have you called to set up a meeting to talk to anyone who works at the station? Do you even know the right people to talk to?
Is your music in stores? Did you market your music to Detroit listeners?
Do you listen to WJLB yourself? If you did, you’d know we play more Detroit music than you think…EVERY day. Please get at me. DJDDT@sprintpcs.com

It’s just me and my mp3. I gave up on 97.9 and 102.7 a long time ago. They play garbage and there is no balance with good hip hop, not just with the Detroit hip hop artists, with hip hop as a whole.

A lot of people feel the same way.

DDT is full of shit! JLB is notorious for not supporting Detroit hip hop. I for one could care less about being played on their station. I listen to that station DAILY (I don’t have a choice…the broads at work listen to it,as well as my wife, niece and nephew and I have yet to hear some Detroit shit…oh yeah “what’s next on the menu”…but that’s like an hour out of a week so I’d like to end this post by saying FUCK WJLB!!!!

First 96.3 stopped playing hip hop, and then Billy T left and Detroit radio aint been worth listening to ever since.
