Audacy elevates media veteran Andre' Yancey to Assistant Brand Manager of WXBK-FM (94.7 The Block) in New York. With the move, Yancey transitions from sister WCBS-FM, where he has served as executive producer of "Scott Shannon in the Morning" since 2021. Previously, Yancey worked as Director of New Media for United Stations Media Networks. His radio experience includes stops at 92.3 NOW in New York as personality and producer for the "Rollin' with Nick Cannon" morning show.

"I am so excited to have Andre' on the Block team," said WXBK Brand Manager Skip Dillard. "His versatility and passion impress me every day. Andre' understands and demonstrates the energy, content, social and digital finesse needed to cut through the clutter in today's media landscape."

"I want to thank Skip Dillard for inviting me to join this incredible group," added Yancey. "We have a great team with Nick Cannon, Shelley Wade and Ed Lover, with more on the way. The Block is a living, breathing organism that's quickly becoming a part of the community's social fabric. I extend gratitude to Chris Oliviero, Jim Ryan, and Scott Shannon for your blessings and support in embarking on this new venture. My time with WCBS-FM has been fulfilling and prosperous, with remarkable moments and milestones."
