WJMN (JAM'N 94.5)/Boston elevates DJ Pup Dawg to Program Director, effective immediately. He'll continue to host 3-9pm weekdays and contribute to Ashlee and The JAM'N Morning Show with DJ 4Eign and Santi. DJ Pup Dawg started his radio journey at 92.3 The Beat in Los Angeles and joined the JAM'N 94.5 team in 2002. He became the Music Director in 2008, moved to middays in 2013 and nights in 2015. In 2017, he was promoted to Assistant Program Director and afternoon drive.

"Pup's hustle is legendary," said iHeartMedia Boston Senior Vice President of Programming Dylan Sprague. "The man literally does it all and there is no better person to lead our talented JAM'N team. He has been a constant at our station for 20 years developing strong relationships with artists, managers, community leaders and his dedication is reflective in its success. Most of all, I am excited about his vision for JAM'N's future."

"I'm humbled to see my journey in radio lead to running a hip-hop station," said DJ Pup Dawg. "I followed my dreams and made a hobby into a passion and career. Los Angeles raised me, but Boston made me. Radio has given me the opportunities people dream of. I'm living the dream. This was all made possible with guidance from my boss and mentor, Dylan Sprague. I'm so grateful that he took the time to develop me for this next chapter. I've come up in this business and made real life-long connections. JAM'N is my family."
