Sex Time And Radio Vol. 3 - "The Cult of Personality" (Paperback)

"Sex Time And Radio Vol. 3: The Cult of Personality" is the second release in a four book series written by author, music historian, and on-air personality MARCUS CHAPMAN. While the entire series serves as an All Access VIP pass through the urban radio world of the '90s & 2000s, "Vol. 3: The Cult of Personality" deals with life inside professional radio from 1995 to 1999; most notably inside Chicago radio station WGCI . Not only was WGCI Chicago's #1 radio station at the time, but it was also considered by many industry insiders to be the top Urban Contemporary radio station in America during this era. The station's air staff produced nationally known alumni like Tom Joyner, Doug Banks, and current BET voiceover talent Rick Party; as well as other stars like Mike Love, Dr. Luv, Jeanne Sparrow, Crazy Howard McGee, Irene Mojica, Ramonski Luv, Joe Soto, First Lady, The Diz, Troi Tyler, Sam Sylk, and more. Author Marcus Chapman was WGCI's youngest employee in this era, and he lets the reader experience the lifestyle of an on-air personality raw and uncut. This book contains encounters with celebrities like R Kelly, Aaliyah, Dr. Dre, Michael Jordan, James Brown, Erykah Badu, OutKast, Ice Cube, Tyrese, Faith Evans, En Vogue, LisaRaye, Lisa "Left Eye" Lopes, and many more. It also contains info on how professional radio stations schedule their music; how comedians like Steve Harvey originally started in urban radio; and how great Chicago clubs of the '90s like The Clique, Elixir, and the River West Brewery impacted the lives of WGCI on-air talents and their listeners. The author also discusses the challenges, frustrations & triumphs during his own rise from studio assistant to on-air radio stardom. The book takes you from closed door staff meetings to meetings in the bedroom, and delves into the deeper psychological reasons and life experiences that affect the sex drives of males in the spotlight.
