"EBONY PEGS CORLEY A "SUPER SEXY SINGLE" By Ashley G. Woodson for Brotha Ash Productions and The New Pittsburgh Courier

Ebony magazine named former WAMO deejay Anji Corley as one of the Super Sexy Singles of 2009.

“I first heard about the contest from my publicist at Beckham Media. She suggested that I fill out the application to be a Super Sexy Single. I had initially forgotten about it and one day said let me go ahead and do this...like they say, “Nothing gained, nothing earned.”

Then I get a call from the magazine requesting more information, then informing me that I’m a finalist and next thing I know, they are calling me announcing the great news! I was selected as a Super Sexy Single for 2009. I was at the airport and I screamed!”

WAMO'S LAST RIDE - By Ashley G. Woodson for Brotha Ash Productions and The New Pittsburgh Courier

B. Marshall Productions, Matt Dillinger, NUVO, and Kaski Jewelers presented WAMO’s appreciation party and final celeb boat ride featuring America’s top super-Model Eva Pigford and actor Lance Gross of Tyler Perry’s “House of Pain.” The atmosphere was great and the boat ride was the last event honoring WAMO. Those who came out to show their appreciation for the station will miss it. Even though the boat ride got off to a late start, it was a major success.



It brought all the dee-jays together one last time before WAMO goes off the air next month. You could see the unity that has developed between the dee-jays and other staff members that were present. While some were laid back and reserved, others looked at it as a time to accept change and move forward. Everyone agreed that WAMO will be missed, but some hinted the fact that there may be another urban radio station in the works.
