It looks Hot 97 looking to change their programming. The legendary radio station reportedly gives of Nessa afternoon reception to Funk Flex.
Page six is reference that the broadcaster will make some changes to their daily schedule. The celebrity news site says two of their biggest names will be making a switch. According to one of their unnamed sources, Funk Flex will soon be manning the station's famous 3pm slot. – 7 p.m. That driving time slot is currently held by Nessa, who is said to be “upset” about how the drive is handling. “Hot 97 execs didn't respect her enough to call her directly about the changes, but they informed her team about the change, leaving Nessa feeling blindsided,” the source said.
“Nessa has achieved a lot [broadcasting] Therefore, taking her to nights is not only disrespectful but will completely interrupt the time she spends with her child,” the insider added. “She's really upset about the time switch and is looking for ways to keep her schedule the way she signed up for it.” After Angie Martinez announced her departure in 2014, Nessa was announced as her replacement in 2015. According to NielsenNessa On Air ranks No. 1 in the 18-34 age group.
As expected, news of the switch landed on Flex's radar. He took to Instagram to dismiss the rumours.
“@NYPOST WOW? IS THIS INFORMATION 100 PERCENT ACCURATE? 😂😂😂😂😂😂! UMMMMMM? ME AND NESSA ROLL TOGETHER! CAN ANYONE ELSE BE TIGHT? (THINK WE CAN'T SEE YOU?) he wrote. In addition, the famous DJ shared a video of him and Nessa having lunch with the rest of the staff.
Hot 97 has yet to officially address the speculation.
