Hot 97 Ends 'Ebro in the Morning' After 13 Years

Hot 97 is shifting to temporary morning coverage as Superadio positions the Ebro brand for a new platform.

Overview

  • The three hosts announced the end on Dec. 12, a representative for Peter Rosenberg confirmed the program is over, and Hot 97 removed the show’s pages from its website.
  • MediaCo told trade outlets that Funkmaster Flex would cover the morning slot starting Dec. 15 "until further notice."
  • Flex later clarified on social media that he is filling in for only one day, leaving the longer-term morning lineup unresolved.
  • Super Radio Networks said distribution of the show in its current form is ending but the company remains fully committed to the Ebro brand, with details on new platforms to come.
  • Ebro Darden publicly suggested his progressive politics played a role in the decision, a claim he made in a video that has not been corroborated in the reporting.
