Doctor of Style

Peter Rosenberg breaks his silence after being fired by Hot97 19 years later and his show with Ebro being cancelled after 13 years🚨 "Almost 19 years later it comes to a close ... longest tenured morning host ever at the station. Became friends with my heroes. The future is very exciting but I'm filled with gratitude for the past. Ebro plucked me out of obscurity in DC and put this mic in my hand. No imagine this. I'm a hip hop kid from DC. Summer Jam was like a figment of my hip hop imagination and I just showed up and was handed a mic and told to go interview these giants. And then I stayed for almost 20 years. I made mistakes, said dumb things, had bad takes BUT for the most part I kept it completely true to the backpacker who dreamed of getting to the big leagues and pushing the culture forward. Two days ago I introduced Rakim on stage (for the 3rd or 4th time) ... Flex DJ'd my wedding. Alongside Cipha Sounds I created the hip hop podcast genre. I made lifelong friends like Laura Stylez Kast One Juanyto Shani Kulture and so many others (whole team you know what's up). The run is psychotic. Thank you God. And to the people who used to be at Hot and the few that remain who truly care about the brand and the culture -- I hope I mostly made you proud."
