Nick Cannon is returning to morning radio in Los Angeles at Hip-Hop KWPR (Power 106). Nick Cannon Mornings – Power 106 #1 for Hip Hop will air daily from 5-10 am.
“Nick is the quintessential entertainer and content creator who will take our media game to the next level,” said Otto Padron, President/COO of Meruelo Media. “His tremendous success across television, film, and music is testimony of his unique talent, work ethic, and impeccable reputation.” Otto concluded, “Nick is the absolute right talent to start our mornings on Power 106 – this is an incredible match and we’re fortunate to have him on our family!”
Cannon said, “Power 106 is one of the most substantial fixtures in our Hip Hop culture that has proven time and time again that they are #1 and not going anywhere! Los Angeles is used to star players joining star franchises! I’m just honored for the opportunity to make our community and Culture proud. All I can say is it’s Ncredible!”
Power 106 PD E-Man said, “Nick Cannon is that fresh sound we were looking for on Power 106. Nick is an incredible entertainer who embodies Hip-Hop, pop culture, comedy, and community all in one! We are very excited to have him on our team.”
Cannon has been off the air from Power 106 last July, following anti-Semitic comments made on his podcast. At the time, he said he would “take some time away from my radio show so I can commit myself to deeper, more thorough reflection and education.”
