Angie Martinez Leaves Hot 97 For Power 105.1 [Video]

Angie Martinez is moving across town and up the radio dial from Hot 97 to Power 105.1, giving Power the biggest score yet in the city’s long-running hip-hop radio wars. For more than 15 years Martinez’s 3-7 p.m. show has helped define Hot 97 (WQHT, 97.1 FM) as America’s most influential hip-hop station. Now, in a switch that was both surprising and swift, she’ll be doing the afternoon show at Power (WWPR, 105.1 FM).
