Urban One Atlanta adds Jarard J as the new evening personality on Urban AC WAMJ-FM (MAJIC 107.5/97.5). Jarard J will be heard starting November 19, weekdays from 6-10pm. "Jarard J has a strong, established brand in the market," said RVP Tim Davies, "so when we were searching for who would complement the Steve Harvey Morning Show, Maria More, and now, Ryan Cameron Uncensored in the afternoons, adding Jarard J, was a perfect fit."

"When Hurricane Dave and Derek Harper chose me, it illustrated the confidence and faith that the leadership team has in me and I was both humbled and honored," said Jarard J, "I feel like a first round draft pick. I am excited and ready to ball."

Program Director Derek Harper added, "Atlanta is one of the most competitive markets in the country. Our listeners expect the best talent so when it came to adding talent to the Majic roster... this was a no-brainer."
