DJ Cipha Sounds, most notable for his 17 years of spinning at Hot 97, has just announced that he will no longer be working for the station.
Ciph will be making his exit shortly after revealing his frustrations with the station during his latest Juan Epstein podcast. Less than 24 hours after the podcast went live, Hot 97 released this short, but official press release.
"Effective immediately, Cipha Sounds is no longer with WQHT HOT 97 FM. We wish him well on his future endeavors."
The former morning show DJ took to Instagram this afternoon to confirm the news.
"After 17 years, I'm leaving Hot 97. I'm changing my relationship status from 'it's complicated' to 'single.' It's been an amazing ride - from intern to weekends to morning show host to fill Angie's seat in afternoons. Many years of incredible, life-changing experiences and enough amazing memories to last five lifetimes. The next move is already underway and I promise it's going to be huge."
