MediaBase Monday Holiday Report –URBAN Format Only

Due to the Holiday weekend most radio Stations compromised their formats. More New music was played or stations programmed “old school” or just put Fresh Prince “Summertime” in heavy rotation. Nonetheless, music was played and some records came out winning big time. Lets take a look.

The Interscope Urban Dept. Chinese Fire Drill (you have to come from that system like me to know what that means) was at an all time blitz this weekend over Keyshia Cole “Enough of No Love”.
