Boston Radio: Urban WKAF Launches New Morning Show

Boston’s new Urban WKAF 97.7 FM debuted The Morning Wake Up Morning Show with KJ and Kesha, featuring KJ Carson and Kesha Monk Monday morning. The show airs weekdays from 6:00 to 10:00AM on Entercom's New 97.7 FM in Boston and streaming nationwide on www.977rnb.com.

KJ Carson returns to Boston radio after 17 years. His career began in Greensboro, NC with stops in Charlotte, Kansas City, Atlanta, Washington D.C. and previous experience in Boston as the Morning Drive Host of the legendary WILD-AM. Carson adds, “I am very humbled and honored to come back to Boston. I feel like I have been blessed in a way that words cannot describe.”

Kesha Monk has hosted radio programs in the largest markets in the country including New York, Los Angeles and Chicago. Kesha is a product of a musical family; both of her parents were professional gospel recording artists and her great uncle was the legendary jazz musician, Thelonious Monk. “I am looking forward to entertaining, inspiring, uplifting and encouraging our Boston listeners and beyond,” says Monk. It’s the first time KJ and Kesha have worked together as a team.
