Radio One/Philadelphia announces two new shows on WRNB-FM for the new year, "The Quincy Harris Morning Show with K Foxx" and "The DL Hughley Show" in afternoon drive. Beginning Monday, January 4, Quincy and DL Hughley's shows will air from 6-10am and 3-7pm weekdays, respectively. Harris is returning to radio after 15 years, previously serving on-camera at WTXF (Fox 29)'s "Good Day Philadelphia." After two seasons on the show, Harris now hosts his own WTXF Fox show, "The Q," weekdays at noon.

D.L. Hughley is one of the most popular and highly recognized standup comedians on the road today that has also made quite an impression in the television, film and radio industries. D.L. created and starred in the satirical documentary special for Comedy Central, "D.L. Hughley: The Endangered List." which was honored with the George Foster Peabody Award and by the Television Academy.

In addition to hosting syndicated "The D.L. Hughley Show," the popular stand-up comedian is also a weekly contributor to the syndicated "Tom Joyner Morning Show." He's also served as host of his own late night talk show on CNN, "D.L. Hughley Breaks the News."

In a statement regarding the moves, Radio One said, "For the past 2 years, WRNB programming has ranked 13th to 16th in the 25-54 demo. Although we share in our listener's admiration for our impacted talent, as this change wasn't easy for us either, it is critical that we take calculated risks to reimagine and reposition this station for long-term success. Radio One's commitment to the Black community is unwavering. In fact, it is the impetus for our changes and the passion that drives our work daily."
