The latest round of musical chairs among Chicago\u2019s urban radio stations played out Monday with the hiring of Tony Sculfield to host evenings at Crawford Broadcasting urban adult-contemporary WSRB FM 106.3.<\/a><\/p>\n

Starting June 15, Sculfield will be heard from 6 to 10 p.m. Monday through Friday. Until he was released<\/a> last December, he had been morning personality for more than five years at iHeartMedia urban contemporary WGCI FM 107.5.<\/a><\/p>\n

Ramonski Luv<\/p><\/div>\n

At Chicago\u2019s R&B 106.3 FM (formerly Soul 106.3), Sculfield replaces Ramonski Luv, who was dismissed<\/a> last week after six months for undisclosed personal reasons. Luv (whose real name is Ramon Wade), previously had spent 14 years at iHeartMedia stations, including WGCI and urban adult-contemporary WVAZ FM 102.7.<\/a><\/p>\n

Sculfield, 48, a Chicago native and longtime stand-up comic, joined WGCI as a contributor to \u201cCrazy\u201d Howard McGee\u2019s morning show in 2006 and later became afternoon personality. From 2009 until last year, he hosted \u201cThe Morning Riot\u201d with Nina Chantele and Leon Rogers.<\/p>\n

Monday\u2019s move follows last month's\u00a0talent raid<\/a> by iHeartMedia, which lured midday host Frankie Robinson and afternoon host Tone Kapone (whose real name is Anthony May) from Crawford Broadcasting urban contemporary WPWX FM 92.3 <\/a>to WGCI. No start date has been announced for Robinson and Kapone, who are believed to be bound by standard noncompete agreements typically in effect for three to six months.<\/p>\n

Asked to comment on Sculfield\u2019s hiring, Crawford Broadcasting programming consultant Tony Gray said: \u201cI like his first name \u2014 and his commitment to serving the community.\u201d<\/p>\n

In the latest Nielsen Audio survey, evenings on 106.3 FM tied for 30th place with a 0.8 percent share and cumulative weekly audience of 84,000.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
