Growing up in New Orleans, I knew I wanted to be a DJ since I was a kid. Moved to Lafayette and eventually got the opportunity to be on-air and haven't looked back since. Being in radio, I've had the opportunity to DJ at most of the clubs in Lafayette as well as an occasional gig in Baton Rouge. I'm on the air every Monday through Saturday from 10-2pm. More »

An icon of hip-hop culture and a pivotal part of the MTV News team, Sway has been a staple of the music-news arena for more than a decade.

After high school graduation, and yes he did graduate, Chris chose to pursue a college career in the filed of Science. And then, one day he decided he needed to do something that was different every day he would show up to work. Thus, Chris changed his major to Broadcast Journalism and attended LSU. More »

So apparently I'm labeled as the party animal for all of us here at Hot 1079 which is somewhat...........true, but if I don't have fun then the rest of the Hot Crew would have nothing to talk about. I am one of the local guys and what I mean by local is that I grew up in the small town of Ville Platte, Louisiana and yes I DO know how to cook. Dropping into radio is one of the best things that could have ever happened to me and I enjoy it to the fullest!  Being in this business I get the chance to meet so many listeners and get to be active in society which is huge.
