As an Account Executive with Streetz 95.1 Chicago, I’m taking a moment to reflect on the news that the station will officially go off the air at the end of April. It’s definitely bittersweet 😭.
Being part of this team has been an incredibly meaningful experience. I’m proud to have contributed to a platform that brought the culture, vibes, and a new style of broadcasting to Chicago’s airwaves. Streetz wasn’t just a radio station, it was a media group for the streets, and a home for urban talent, both on-air, on or behind the scenes.
Although it’s sad to see our chapter in Chicago come to a close, I’m deeply grateful for the opportunity to do impactful, paid work in media, something that’s not always easy to come by in this industry. The relationships I built, the lessons I learned, and the confidence I gained are things I’ll carry forward with me.
I kicked ass coming through the door for Super Bowl Weekend, bringing in the most money in February and March working with Wilma’s BBQ, The AC Green Show, and Majani’s Food Emporium after my training, activating my superpowers 🦸🏽♀️.
Thank you to Core Radio Group & Streetz especially Trey The Choklit for the opportunity and support. I hope to work with them again in the future and continue building in other cities and capacities.
Chicago, thank you for rocking with us. 🙇🏽♀️
