CBS RADIO Top 40/Rhythmic WBBM (B-96)/CHICAGO’s “The Night Ninja” JULIANONTHERADIO has teamed with CHICAGO-based DJ/mixer DJ METRO to produce THE PHENOM. JULIANONTHERADIO tells ALL ACCESS, “I was thinking how cool would it be it be to be in your ride over the weekend listening to a choice mixtape produced with my most-requested “Radio Segments and Phone Scams” from my nightly radio show? It’s kind of like THE JERKY BOYS Meets Hip-Hop.

The above mixtape was sent my way from an old friend, Julian Nieh.  DC metro-land would easily recognize him as 1) a former 99.5 radio personality and 2) a heavy hitter in the import auto scene.  Both of which he has left behind when he packed and headed to Chi-town. Currently, Julian aka the Nite Ninja is manning a nightly show on B96.  And not surprisingly, doing a hell of a job at it.

The concept behind this collabo mixtape is to blend a bit of Julian’s humor and creativity into what would otherwise be an ordinary hip hop and rnb mixtape.  Meanwhile, DJ Metro’s selection of big name tracks complement Julian’s radio segments.  I was instantly sold after having heard Estelle’s American Boy as the intro track.  Listen to the stream, prepare to be entertained and download the mix here.  You won’t regret it.  On a different note, I’m wondering if the Todd Zimmerman from CITI alias is paying homage to an old high school pal.
