WHEN MAC DRE DIED
i remember they still wasnt fucking with local rap after his death, but i remember KMEL was pretty much pushing mac dre w/ feeling myself and going all out after his death. then, all of the sudden; feds, quinn, team, keak, 40, frontline, jack, etc. started getting airplay. still, i didnt remember 949 was fucking w/ the bay. but when the hyphy movement was in its peak, 40 on mtv, and you hear all the mixes on kmel that consisted about 80% bay rap, and ratings for kmel was booming cause thats what the locals want,still, i remember 949 trying to promote "the station for the latins" or someshit w/ all that reggaetone shit. but when 949 realize no one was fuckign with them, tats when they starting playing bay rap all day and even gave fab his own show. still though, kmel is a few steps ahead of 949 right now in the local scene. only time i listen to 949 is on sundays when they play the oldies.

Its the Radio what yall expect. The radio dont give a fuck about good music. They only care about spins and money. They are all the same. 94.9 just caters to latinos, asians and whites, while kmel is more directed towards the blacks of the bay. 94.9 is boo boo just like all commercial radio. Anything popular that can make them money they'll jump on like they down or something. FUCK THE RADIO

Stop hating? No. I hate 94.9 there for i'm a hater. Yes I'm a hater of 94.9. All their "Dj's" are annoying as fuck. Especially "Hood Rat Miguel" what kind of homo ass name is that? He sounds like a bitch ass square trying to be hard.

they jus doin wat gives em ratings...they are followeres...that raggaeton shit was popular for a second, so they hop'd on its dick...n then they realized how bay music was blowin up ...especially in the bay...thas what everybody is listenin to...so they hop'd on bay's dick...I aint got nuthin against that...they are in the business to make money by gettin more listeners and you can do that by playin whats hot right now...but PLEASE dont say you are doin it for the BAY or you are playing it coz you are representing...bullshit, you are not a trendsetter, you are following the masses...and PLEASE dont say you been puttin it down for the bay for ever, for that you had to play Bay shit when nobody else was playing it...i know people requested bay shit back then, did it get played? no? all of a sudden you the hyphy station???

again, i dont have a problem wit em playin bay shit...play that shit all day n give us some exposures you bitches!!

right now, bay music is hot. dudes who are on this board have always been into bay music, obviously... but do you really think the majority of the bay has ever liked bay music as much as they do now??? HELL NO! 94.9 is gonna play what's hot at the time... when freestyle and dance were hot, that's what they played... when people thought reggaeton was hot, that's what they played (apparently they realized they were wrong! ha). now that people think bay music is so hot, that's what they're playing... and i'm sure once it starts to cool down they won't play it as much. but i will say this... 94.9 has played a huge role in the attention the bay has been getting nationally. coincidence that after they started playing shit like "tell me when to go" and "super hyphy" all the time shit starts ending up on mtv & bet? as long as bay music has been knockin', it took 94.9 playing it to get the attention of media and record labels across the country... and look how many cats are looking at major label deals now... that's something we've NEVER seen in the bay. so i'm really not mad at them playing bay music. hopefully people don't decide something else is hot too fast.

I guess thats why 94.9's DJs have been showcased on MTV shows like My Block the Bay and also on BET shit like Keyshia Coles new reality series.

Wild 107.7

But uhh

94.9 used to be straight garbage with that dance beat that sounded like a wack 80s movie mixed in with some techno...over a mexican bitch singing about how "I will always l-oooove him". And then they hopped on that raggaeton dick and now they are the "BAY" station.

Mostly I bump KMEL...but it seems to me that lately KMEL has gone more Top 40 and 94.9 is the latecomers...now they playin the bay cause they just discovered it...so when KMEL is playin some NY shit I will change it to 94.9.

Marcos Guiterez 9 oclock beat had Wild 107.7 on lock. Thats when radio was the shit. Remember Chuy Gomez was Mancow's stunt dood. hahahah Man thats when KMEL and 94.9 were neck and neck. Then one day 94.9 turned into some Techno Banda station.
