97.9 The Box announced the return of DJ J-Que to its Morning Drive lineup, beginning Monday, January 26. J-Que will take the lead on the station’s award-winning show Good Morning H-Town, joining longtime co-host JMac and rising talent Young Jas.
The move marks J-Que’s first Morning Drive role since 2017, when he was part of The Madd Hatta Morning Show. Afterward, he teamed with Houston radio veteran G-Man on The Afternoon Sauce, cementing his reputation as a versatile on-air personality.
“J-Que is a true team player who makes everyone around him better,” said Yonni Rude in a statement, Program Director of 97.9 The Box. “His off-the-cuff humor combined with the personalities of JMac and Young Jas is like assembling the Avengers of morning radio—ready to save H-Town from the most stressful part of the day: the morning commute.”
Alongside his hosting duties, J-Que continues to serve as Assistant Program Director and Music Director for 97.9 The Box.
J-Que’s return is part of a larger strategy by KBXX to strengthen its morning programming, a time slot considered critical for building listener loyalty and driving ratings.
Beyond the microphone, J-Que has developed a notable presence as a tastemaker, influencer, and brand partner. His collaborations span high-profile companies. These partnerships highlight his reach not only within music and entertainment but also in marketing and brand engagement.
Listeners can tune in to Good Morning H-Town weekdays beginning January 26 to hear J-Que alongside JMac and Young Jas, as the trio navigates music, culture, and the daily chaos of morning commutes.
