In addition to programming, J1 is slated for middays at WHHH.
MAC told ALL ACCESS, "I started my radio career with RADIO ONE in CLEVELAND as a receptionist and it’s an honor to rejoin the RADIO ONE family where I will now serve as a PD for the company. Persistence, hard work and patience pays off. I'm so excited, grateful, and humbled by this opportunity. Special thanks to COLBY COLB, DEON LEVINGSTON, JAY STEVENS and HURRICANE DAVE for believing in me, my talents, and experience. I look forward to growing and learning from some of the best in the industry."
