Audacy and syndicator Superradio is launching a new weekend show, “rapfabulous,” hosted by Mic Fox and Jazzie Belle.
The show, dedicated to classic Hip-Hop culture and history, will debut this weekend in Chicago and New York.
Rapfabulous will highlight legacy artists, iconic tracks, and pivotal moments that shaped Hip-Hop culture on Saturday mornings on 104.3 Jams in Chicago and Sunday afternoons on 94.7 The Block in New York. The show will also be available for national streaming on the Audacy app.
Audacy Format, Vice President of Rhythmic AC and Throwback Skip Dillard, said, “Since celebrating Hip-Hop’s 50th anniversary, we saw how important it is to amplify the voices that shaped this influential genre. We’re excited to deepen our listeners’ understanding of this historic format through Mic and Jazzie’s insightful perspective and give a platform to legacy artists to share their journey in the genre.”
