Title: Julio G was Fired by his RAdio Station!!
Post by: Hambone (Guest) on May 02, 2001, 06:27:59 PM: WTF??????????

taken from http://www.daveyd.com/

Bad news for Hip Hop fans in LA. Long time fixture and Hip Hop pioneer Julio G has been given the ax at KKBT The Beat. For those who are familiar with Julio, it comes as a total shock and disappointment. Julio's roots go way back to LA early Hip Hop days when the legendary radio station KDAY was around. He was an original member of the famed mixmasters crew which included Joe Cooley and Tony G. KDAY of course was the country's first Hip Hop oriented rap station. Julio's on air presence was a reminder to all of just how deep rooted LA's Hip Hop scene was.

now that is some Fucked up shit...

Post by: Now_Im_Not_Banned on May 02, 2001, 10:40:01 PM: Oh my god dude....But my Radio (My school Elective) Teacher told me that once a Radio station changes it's dial, they usually fire all the old DJ's and bring in new ones...I guess this is why...I hope Power 106 gets him...Power 106 is waaay more real than the beat...Oh and if not Power, then he can go to Q1047 (104.7) which is also a tight ass radio station.....Damn that sux to have the greatest DJ fired from the gayest Radio Station....

Post by: Now_Im_Not_Banned on May 02, 2001, 10:43:17 PM: That's why they removed everyone else from "The Beat" too...The Beat was waaay better when it 92.3...Hope that Julio doesn't retire...

What's up with The Beat. They got rid of all their good DJ's. Theo was awesome. Way better than Adimu. They got rid of Theo and now he works for Mega 92.3. Then they got rid of the best morning radio show around, John London and the House Party. I loved them. They moved to Mega and now they dissappeared too.

Why are they fucking up their station?

Post by: Sikotic™ on May 03, 2001, 02:11:08 AM: Lets hope Power 106 picks him up. They are way smarter than The Beat the past couple of years.

Post by: Smooth on May 03, 2001, 02:29:13 PM: yeah i agree with DA_assassin he should jump to Pow 106

Post by: Jay ay Beee on May 03, 2001, 03:14:18 PM: Cuz I'm from England I don't know what his show is like but he's hilarious on Represent Dat G.C.
A cheka cheka cheka!
Do you reckon we could swap him with Westwood?
Title: Re: Julio G was Fired by his RAdio Station!!
Post by: Mr_Loc on May 03, 2001, 03:54:21 PM: from what i hear Julio has got some big things planned and i think he will help bring west coast hip hop to a new high.

Its funny if you peep his bio page at the beats web site (www.thebeatla.com) he says 'Im not really a radio DJ, im just hustlin the beat for now'.

i doubt he'll go to Power, theres no way theyd get rid of Felly Fel, since he has that same time slot julio had.

much love to Juli the OG, one of the few people who has always been down for the west, do your thing playboy.

fuck the beat

Why are they fucking up their station?

I told you...They changed Dials from 92.3 to 100.3 because they weren't getting ratings, and when you try to get higher ratings you do the following...

1.Get rid of all your old DJ's
2.Hire new ones
3.change Dials
4.and get a new manager

Basically they went R&B...

And actually they are getting higher ratings because a bunch of little teeny boppers are tunin in to Steve Harvey insteada Big Boy...But Power 106 is 097402`73409873249321765409 times better....

Post by: Hambone (Guest) on May 04, 2001, 01:03:24 AM: Yo..for you oversees peeps.....if u dont know who Julio G is....you should try to check him out.......he has kept it real....to the fullest....interviewed everybody..east coast..west,south north.......it dont matter..and he bumped all types of music.......check him out..
Title: Re: Julio G was Fired by his RAdio Station!!
Post by: M Dogg™ on May 04, 2001, 01:13:12 AM: The Beat got rid of the Wake Up Show, and Julio G. That is a shame, If Eazy was still around, they would have got rid of Ruthless Radio too. Fuck it though, I've been Power since the Baka Boyz started and they brought in the man known as BBIIIGGG BBOOOOYYY!!!! Though Julio G gets much love, he still produces tracks for Thump Records, as do the Baka Boyz, which if ya'all don't know is a mainly Mexican Record label, though they do have The Whole Dam Yey with Ant Banks. Julio G is still working so I'm not to upset. But the Beat is straight gay now. Jay-Z and R&B. Come on.
Title: Re: Julio G was Fired by his RAdio Station!!
Post by: Sikotic™ on May 04, 2001, 02:19:45 AM: What happened to the Baka Boys? Are they still on radio.

And what really, really, REALLY pissed me off was that they got rid of Theo and John London and the House Party a couple of years back. I still haven't forgave them for that. For years they would make my morning and afternoon start off on a good note.
Title: Re: Julio G was Fired by his RAdio Station!!
Post by: Trauma-san on May 04, 2001, 02:26:31 AM: I BELIEVE The Baka Boys Were Fired Too, Because They Wouldn't Play what The Station Wanted Them To. Ther'es Been A TON Of Firings Lately, Everybody Famous Got Canned... LOL....
Title: Re: Julio G was Fired by his RAdio Station!!
Post by: Sikotic™ on May 04, 2001, 02:31:32 AM: Yeah the Baka Boys jumped from Power to The Beat and then dissapeared. Ed Lover and Dr. Dre did the morning show for the Beat and they dissappeared. Actually I saw Ed Lover doing commentary for this Sports-Entertainment show called "Battle Dome" (similar to American Gladiators) and he does K.O. Nation, a boxing show on HBO. Thats a big career stretch.

And didn't The Snoop Dogg radio show used to be on Power??
Title: Re: Julio G was Fired by his RAdio Station!!
Post by: Now_Im_Not_Banned on May 04, 2001, 07:50:16 PM: I think there was one on Power and one on The Beat... ;)
Title: Re: Julio G was Fired by his RAdio Station!!
Post by: Sikotic™ on May 04, 2001, 08:18:29 PM: Nah I just think he switched stations.
Title: Re: Julio G was Fired by his RAdio Station!!
Post by: Now_Im_Not_Banned on May 04, 2001, 09:04:54 PM: If he did, then he ended up on The Beat...
Title: Re: Julio G was Fired by his RAdio Station!!
Post by: Sikotic™ on May 05, 2001, 01:02:54 AM: Hopefully they won't be stupid enough to drop him. If they do then I will lose all respect for the beat and give up on them. I already have since they only play 112, Sunshine Anderson and Jay-Z all day.
Title: Re: Julio G was Fired by his RAdio Station!!
Post by: Now_Im_Not_Banned on May 05, 2001, 03:08:55 AM: I think it is headed towards R&B...Im guessin In a year or so, we would be lucky to hear a rap song on The Beat...

Did you notice how The Beat and Power changed their slogans

The Beat used to be "No Colorlines" now it's "LA's New Home For Hip Hop and R&B"

Power used to be "Where Hip Hop Lives" now it's "Blazin The Most Hip Hop and R&B"....Radio was Tha Shit back in the days...Now they only play Whack Comercial songs, which gives you more reason to buy CD's, which causes you to be broke, which makes you become a homeless on the street, which makes your life suck...So if anything bad happens to you, you can blame it on The Beat....
Title: Re: Julio G was Fired by his RAdio Station!!
Post by: Sikotic™ on May 05, 2001, 04:00:54 AM: Nah they will always have rap. No doubt about that. Thats what put The Beat on the map.
Title: Re: Julio G was Fired by his RAdio Station!!
Post by: Now_Im_Not_Banned on May 05, 2001, 04:05:12 AM: Yea, but look, they are not the same anymore...They even got a new manager and owner, and I think they have different taste than the old managers...So they are kinda changing the format to more R&B than Hip Hop...
Title: Re: Julio G was Fired by his RAdio Station!!
Post by: Sikotic™ on May 05, 2001, 04:07:12 AM: They really need to change their manager back cause their stuff is gettin mad wack.
Title: Re: Julio G was Fired by his RAdio Station!!
Post by: Now_Im_Not_Banned on May 05, 2001, 04:09:14 AM: Well, he quit and that's why they had to get a new one...BTW, have you heard of Q1047 (104.7)..It's a rap station, barely any R&B and it's tight...It's in Bad Quality where I live, but it's tight...Have you heard it by any chance?
Title: Re: Julio G was Fired by his RAdio Station!!
Post by: Now_Im_Not_Banned on May 05, 2001, 04:11:07 AM: BTW, BDogg, go in the Fantasy Record Lable Forum and 'buy' 3 CD's...Please homie..Support us...
Title: Re: Julio G was Fired by his RAdio Station!!
Post by: Sikotic™ on May 05, 2001, 04:11:38 AM: Yeah I know about 104.7. But it doesn't come in clear from where I live either. I can only listen to it when I'm downtown. They have some tight music though.

Post by: Sikotic™ on May 05, 2001, 04:27:16 AM: I was one step ahead of ya. BTW, I jacked the CD's. I am runnin a little short so I had no choice ;)
Title: Re: Julio G was Fired by his RAdio Station!!
Post by: Now_Im_Not_Banned on May 05, 2001, 04:52:02 AM: Nice picture, but do you think you can make it a little smaller? Or is it that the guy wont fit on a smaller pic...LOL
Title: Re: Julio G was Fired by his RAdio Station!!
Post by: RAPQUAKE on May 05, 2001, 01:45:33 PM: yea WORD up about that r&b bullish, the beat is tryin to become more and more "black" these dayz and i hardly ever listen to them anymore since they play that gay r&b shit, but the only good things on beat were Julio G AND Snoop dogg radio shit, and now one iz gone... and the other one really isnt that great, snoop wastes too much times lpayin that gay old funk shit i dont digg (no dissrespect to the older peeps), but he needs ta move back to power, and julio needs ta move dere 2...

and basikally they shood jus make power a 100% HIP HOP STATION, of course playin west coast hip hop more...and let beat become a gay R n B "Black" station...

and to now_i_KNOW "Blazin The Most Hip Hop and R&B".... has been the power phrase for at least 3/4 years....
Title: Re: Julio G was Fired by his RAdio Station!!
Post by: Sikotic™ on May 09, 2001, 08:00:01 PM: The reason The Beat is turnin' so wack is cause Power is killin them. They took all their listeners (including me). Since they won't get rap fans the next best thing is R&B. Thats why only 14 to 17 year old girls only call in.

Post by: Doggystylin on May 09, 2001, 10:17:54 PM: that sucks all the good guys like Baka Boys and Julio G are dissapearing 106 is waay better than the gay beat, tito is hella funny LOL
