Welp, Hot 97 just lost another one of their veteran radio personalities to a competing hip-hop/r'n'b station in New York. In November, Mister Cee, who's had his fair share of tabloid gossip and press this past year, announced his retirement from Hot 97. It's a move that he almost did amid the drama, but as he said during his final radio mix, "I am signing off from HOT 97 after this day. Nothing happened to me. There's no controversy like last year [laughs]. It's just it's time for me to go, Tri-State. It's time for me to move on."
Now we've found out that he's literally moving on, to another radio station. In a statement to XXL, Mister Cee revealed he's taken up a position at Radio 103.9 in New York. The station is r'n'b-centric, but undoubtedly Mister Cee will bring his fair share of hip-hop to it. You'll be hear to Cee live on Radio 103.9 this Saturday, December 13th. Read Mister Cee's all-caps (why) statement on the new venture below.
"I AM EXCITED, HUMBLED, & BLESSED TO BE BACK ON THE RADIO WITH THE NEW RADIO 103.9 IN NEW YORK. TO BE A PART OF A NEW GROWING STATION GIVES ME A FRESH START IN MY RADIO CAREER. SPECIAL THANKS TO KEN JOHNSON & RAPHAEL GEORGE FOR GIVING ME THIS OPPORTUNITY. ALSO A VERY SPECIAL THANK YOU TO ANDREW VERAS AKA DOMINICAN DREW FOR PUSHING FOR ME TO BE A PART OF THE RADIO 103.9 FAMILY, I WILL NEVER EVER FORGET IT."
