SILVER
SPRING, Md., May 1, 2023
/PRNewswire/ -- Ryan Cameron—actor, comedian, community
advocate—will helm the all-new Ryan Cameron Uncensored Show
(RCUS), starting syndication nationally by Urban One Inc's
Reach Media starting May
1st. The Urban AC show will originate out of
Atlanta and will be available in
segments for afternoon drive and middays.
Ryan has been described as the media force the public loves to
love, and his show—pure rambunctious, raucous, revelry! "When
people ask me what Ryan Cameron Uncensored is about, besides all
the fun, it's really about being able to educate our listeners as
well as entertain," he said. "We want them to be able to talk about
something we shared on the show with family, friends, co-workers,
or even complete strangers."
An Atlanta native, he is a
two-time Emmy Award Winner and member of the Georgia Radio Hall of
Fame. Cameron holds the distinction as the first African American
P.A. announcer in the history of the Atlanta Hawks. His signature
"for3eeeeeeeee" call is featured in video game platforms around the
world.
"How do you become the number one show in Atlanta which is the most competitive Urban
market in the country?," says Tim
Davies, Radio One Regional Vice President, "you put Ryan on
the air and go."
In 2015, Cameron was named one of Atlanta's 55 Most Powerful by Atlanta Magazine
and is one of The Source's Top 20 Influencers in hip-hop for 10
years running. In 2016, Cameron was ranked by Radio Facts as the
number one non-syndicated radio show in the country. In 2002, he
founded The Ryan Cameron Foundation Leadership Academy, which
recruits high school students and provides them with opportunities
in academic, leadership, and career development along with
community engagement for healthy lifestyles and anti-violence.
"Ryan was an early employee at Radio One, we have grown together
over the years and are excited to offer his compelling content to
the rest of the country, said" Colby
Tyner, Reach Media Senior Vice President, Programming.
Joining Cameron on RCUS are Executive Producer Sam Simmons
and Raymond "Big Ray" Dyer. The Ryan Cameron Uncensored Show adds
to Reach Media's impressive 325 affiliate roster, in 95 DMA's.
He joins celebrated hosts in the Reach Media portfolio, including
Rickey Smiley, Erica Campbell, DL Hughley, and Amanda Seales.
