I like him alot better now. When he was with Hot 107.9 he was so rude, and down-right nasty to his co-workers and to callers. He seems to be a changed man. Whatever the reason for the change, I like it. Keep up the good work Ryan.

Ryan WZUP? You da man, stay here at V-103. Love your show, since you left Hot 107.9, they have gotten so x-rated. Nothing for the kids to Listen to, here at V-103 Frank & Wanda cover it up and you have to figure it out. On your show you have that school bell. Buy Hot 107.9 one please. My best wishes go out to you man, keep us listning. within this one year you have had everybody that is somebody on your show already and they all have love for you.

I think Ryan is awful with the new show and format. He just doesn’t sound comfortable in his environment. Things often sound forced or contribed and in my opinion it’s just not good radio. The may flip through Ryan’s show for a minute or two between 2pm and 3pm…but after 3pm he has definitely loss out to the 2 Live Stews on 790am The Zone. Too bad he couldn’t keep the ego in check, because though it may have been shakey (understandibly) in the first few months, the A-Team has found their identity and moved on nicely. Sorry Ryan.

I like Ryan, bottom line, He is the best in the afternoon, he take us home in the afternoon…I don’t listen to the show in the morning anymore, I am glad that Ryan left 107.9 you could tell they were stressing him especially after Tawanna left..I do not like Frank, Wanda and Al..oops(Ms Sophia) in the morning why must you have a character like that in the mornings to make a show. Face it Ryan was kicking Franks’ butt in the morning and he could do it again if given the chance. I love the Ryan Report and Elle, she is just being herself and not kissing butt to be apart of the show. Keep up the good work Ryan. I cut my radio on at 10:00 to hear Osei sexy voice and I listen until your show ends. Frank, Ghetto gold tooth Wanda and Pathetic Al(oops Ms. Sophia) are the worst and a continued embarrassment to the entire urban morning shows that are on in Atlanta.

I’ve lived in Atlanta for 14 years and have never listened to V103 because I heard it was nothing but a bunch of racists. Judging by the post from JUCEEM, so are its listeners.

I know all the characters involved and my opinion is that there has to be something better out there!!! Our choices are limited to the foul mouthed to the down right ridiculous. I wish all of them individual success however I choose not to be apart of any of the morning shows. Congrats Ryan and I hope that you can return to the early 90 format that made you so popular in most of our memories!!

Ryan Cameron belongs at V-103, he was there when I was a little girl in the eveing playing all the latest hip hop music, and Elle is a wonderful addition she’s always nice and ready to party at the club. No matter what slot of time Ryan is placed in he does very well and I think doing the 2:00 p.m. show expresses his maturity in radio. The Father & Daughter Dance is great and the other things he has help to begin at 107.9, and other activities for charity are most appreciated.

Frank Ski & Wanda along with Ms. Sophia you can kindly back up off of them ALL. The Morning Show is great, informative and funny, not to mention the things that they do in the community. I know for sure most of the people on this blog are not doing the same or even coming close.

Furthermore, Rashan and Griff do a great job in the morning. Everybodys making money and giving back, I shutter to think if some of you would even do the same!

It sounds to me like their are some haters on the blog this morning.

Why are all of Frank friends always in the news. He has “Player” Bill Campbell, Bobby “Blunt” Brown and “Baller Eddie Long. They say birds of a feather flock together. Is Wanda divorced? I noticed when her son went to UGA she was thanking all of the men who helped her with her son but she never said thank you to her husband. Frank always says the tired/overblown usual “I love my wife Tanya”. Frank definately needs Wanda/Ms. Sophia to boost his rating. He was on the show all alone and he was terrible.

The wonderful thing about everyone having an opinion is that it is just that, “an opinion!”. Regardless of what you may think, no matter where Ryan Cameron is, he is very talented and I have the utmost respect for his talent. I’m sure we have all had a day when Ryan said something on the radio at whatever station and it lifted your day! As far as the 107.9 comments, same thing! Rashan stepped up to the plate and showed us all that she could do more than just talk about sports! I’ll keep my opinion to myself about the V103 morning crew, with one exception. You all were WRONG for having all those kids say hey to a man acting like a woman the week of celebration for the kids!! You go to church so read Romans 1:32 and act like you know!

I know that a lot of us listen or support these radio personalities out of shear brother/sisterhood but when you hear someone say that they don’t let there children listen to the radio station that they promote to us as a “people station”, that says a lot to me. We have to wake up a really look at the messages that we are sending to our kids and to the “community” that we want to empower. I don’t know about anyone else out here but I listen to music for entertainment and hosts for information and the occasional joke or traffic report. I don’t want to hear an entire show about how men and women treat each other or who’s better in bed. There are talk shows for that kind of stuff and my morning commute and during the time that my kids are listening to the “school spirit shout out” is not the time for it!!!!!

To me it is very contradictary to have an openly “he/she” as a major part of your show, (Sophia) listen to Frank in one sentence party like a rock/rap star with very morally (drugs/sex/violence) questionable people and then hit us with an “inspirational vitamin” like that’s a cure for the 4 hours of garbage we have been fed. Before all you people who love to label people as haters start to respond, just take a moment and evaluate the show.

I think it’s targeted more for a younger audience. I enjoy listening to Ryan’s show as well as the morning show.

Well, I’m a person, so that would include me too, right? Wrong, according to many on this post. Excuse me for not knowing who these people were, since I’ve never listened, but I do appreciate getting a good idea of what kind of people do listen and what crowd the station caters to.

OK maybe I shouldn’t have referred to her as lilly white but when compared to how she speaks on the that other Ryan’s show it’s quite dramatic. Listening to both she sounded natural on the Stews. At times almost Valley Girlish or quite suburban. On that other Ryan’s show she sounds forced and trying to stress more of an urban dialect.

Understand - but also understand that radio is entertainment just like TV. I’ve listened to 790 for years and 90% of the stories they tell on that and any station is bull. It is made up and so are their on-air personas. And I guarantee that I talk different at work than I do at a party playing bid! Not selling out - just a different comfort level. She was an intern at 790 and didn’t have the luxury of being one of the Stews - the rest of that station is…well talk about lily white!

I agree chidog! I have been following Elle’s career since she first started at the Stews, she has and still does talk exaactly the same! People have been trashing Elle since the Stews for the way she talks and she still hasn’t changed. If thats not keeping it real I don’t know what is. I had an opportunity to meet her a couple times and I can honestly say she is down to earth and very personable. I think she just takes time to grow on people, but remember people she is 22 years old and working with Ryan Cameron, give her props atleast for that. Stop the hate ATL!

I really like Ryan on V-103. I really like hime this week since he is taking Frank Ski’s place since he is still on vacation. He can stay on vacation if you ask me. I really like the chemistry between Ms. Sophia and Ryan. By the way, for all the Ms Sophia haters, she knows she is a man!!
