Peter Rosenberg Hits Hot 97

An emerging radio-personality and established hip-hop DJ, Peter Rosenberg earned his stripes at WMUC while a student at the University of Maryland. After brief stints at WPGC and WHFS, Peter found a home at WJFK hosting an experimental talk radio show that fused discussions of hip-hop, sports, and politics. Already an edgy proposition for the stodgy WJFK, The Peter Rosenberg show was canceled after one too many run-ins with local talk radio darlings Don and Mike.

A media maven in the making, Peter quickly packed up and relocated to New York - landing a spot on the weekend graveyard shift at Hot97. His show brings a mix of underground hip hop both new and old, interviews, freestyles, an odd fascination with pro wrestling and Rick Ric Flair, and something that has long been missing from NYC corporate radio—D.C. Hip Hop.

Check out last week’s show, which features all new material from Wale, Tabi Bonney, Oddisee, Kev Brown, Kaimber, The Package and others.

Real Late with Peter Rosenberg airs Sunday nights in New York City from 1-3 AM on 97.1 FM. MP3s are available at RosenbergRadio.com

    If his talk show on WJFK had any ratings, it wouldn’t have gotten canceled.

  2. Majestic-12 Says:

    I liked PR’s show on WJFK.. it was a worthwhile experiment. But once again DCRTV.COM has scooped you. “Handbag Full of Rainbows” DCTV-Dave reported on Rosenberg’s interim stint spinning records weekend nights at McDonalds in DC, post WJFK.

    Rick Flair? RICK? If the writer could not get this right, what are we to REALLY think about crappy Peter McRosennothing?

  4. Majestic-12 Says:

    How many wrestling fans have seen Ric Flair’s name in print? You, Sir, are a douche. Learn it, know it, learn to love it, because that’s the way it’s going to be. Woo.

  5. TMU Says:

    You forgot to mention McRosenberger’s greatest triumph — his late-night stints at the Adams Morgan McDonald’s spinning MP3s for the drunks and the drug addicts! Hey, CP even did the story — what, did he buy you a beer and suddenly, PR is a taste-maker? “A media maven in the making”? How much did THAT cost?

  6. bobby sacamano Says:

    I understand that Rick Flair recently retired might I suggest same for McRosenberger. Perhaps go into public relations. He does appear to have some skill at self promotion.

    the rosenberg haters have officially taken over the comments…

    i know your IP addresses you bums.
