Station manager Ravi Naidoo said his vast experience and style made him the perfect fit for the team,
“We look forward to the unique flavour as the station continues to refresh to remain relevant and relatable for our listeners.”
The internationally known DJ, who has released many music compilations and singles, will take over the slot from Msizi James.
James will team up with Bolele Polisa to host the Monday to Thursday, 7pm to 10pm slot.
About James’s new spot, Naidoo added: “The duo format has its own magic and we look forward to the combined energy of these two personalities.”
The new line-up follows 6am with Anele and the Club, followed by Mo Flava, Zweli Mbhele, Thando Thabethe, Robert Marawa and Msizi and Bolele, to wrap up the day.
“We believe that the new line-up delivers an enhanced listening value proposition for our current and future listener base, while also providing key opportunities for the advertisers and clients who are critical to our success,” said Naidoo.
