Russ Parr, one of Radio One's first syndicated radio personalities, will continue to keep listeners "Up To Parr" every morning as Reach Media has inked Parr to a multi-year renewal for "The Russ Parr Morning Show." The show airs in markets such as Washington DC, Atlanta, Cincinnati and Fayetteville NC, weekdays from 6-10am. It also features co-hosts Alfredas, Supaken, Priya, Vic Jagger and Albert.

Parr stated, "I'm really very excited about continuing to do what I love. I would do this job for free, but management insisted that they pay me so I relented."

Urban Ones CEO of Radio One stations and Reach Media David Kantor added, "Reach Media is excited that Russ has extended his run as one of our premier syndicated talents and as a vital building block for our stations and Radio One's position as the country's Urban Radio Specialist."
