Memphis Radio Station WDIA Presents The Jus` Blues Music Awards Show As Media Sponsor PDF Print E-mail
Memphis Clear Channel powerhouse WDIA has partnered with Jus` Blues Music in presenting the 2007 Jus` Blues Music Awards Show. 1070 WDIA-AM has been an originator in presenting Blues & Soul music to the Memphis populus since 1948. With 50,000 watts of "Soul Power"and progressive programming, the station has become a strong influence particularly to African-American listeners and Blues & Soul music fans from Memphis down into the Mississippi Delta. WDIA has an interesting documented history on their web site at www.mywdia.com. The impact of WDIA playing music and programs especially for an African-American audience was enormous, not just in Memphis but influenced other stations to program similar formats across the country. The 2007 Jus` Blues Music Awards Show proudly honors WDIA Program Director and Host of the Fun Morning Show, Bobby O'Jay, with the Jack "The Rapper" Gibson Radio Pioneer Award on August 16th at The Historical Daisy on Beale Street.
