The legendary radio talent known as Angie Martinez leaves Hot 97 and goes to their rival station Power 105. She conducted her last show on Wednesday and penned a farewell letter explaining her decision.
“Today I resigned from HOT97. I am grateful to the Emmis family for my time with the company and the immeasurable way that it has shaped my life. We made history together in so many ways and I will cherish those memories and my friendships forever. This was one of the toughest decisions I’ve ever had to make but ultimately it is time to move on, to grow and to be challenged in new ways. Saying goodbye is always emotional and bitter sweet but I am extremely excited about the future. Thank you HOT97 and most importantly….the listeners… for an unimaginable journey. Today will be my last show ❤️ stay tuned…. Love, angie.”
Power 105.1 has confirmed that Martinez will join the station. She will take over the afternoon drive weekdays from 2-6 p.m. starting in mid-July.“I’m excited to join Power 105.1 in New York and The Beat in Miami and expand my brand even further in the coming months,” she said in a statement. For her to just leave like this, must mean that a whole lot of drama must of happen behind the scenes.
