TheIndustry.biz Celebrates 2011’s Top 45 DJs

Congratulations to The Amazing “TheIndustry.biz 2011 45 Top DJ” WINNERS!!!!

EDITOR’S NOTE: TheIndustry.biz has NOT IN ANY WAY picked these winners. Winners were voted on by their fans on social networks, websites etc. some of the winners are no longer working at a station but were working at the start of the contest 10 weeks ago.

This contest got the MOST votes of any contest that we have done. DJs were asked to place code on all of their social networks to get their fans to vote for them.  We marketed the contest to a majority of radio stations, several DJ organizations and to MOST commercial radio DJs… The results are below. The statements under the winner’s names are comments made by some of their fans. This contest will be done again next year.

#45 D. Stone aka “Hypeman D. Stone” / KATZ-AM – Saint Louis , MO

Phenomenal talent. He was just featured in Ebony Magazine. He’s involved with the youth and the community of St. Louis through the radio station and the Young Fly & Saved Movement, of which he serves as vice president. The movement has amassed a following of over 200,000 through social networking mediums.

#44 EJ Greig / WIZF Wiznation – Cincinnati , Ohio 
EJ has only been in Cincinnati in a few months and has already made his mark. That’s just who he is. He is deeply rooted in community and a person of high integrity. I know this because our Michigan market lost him to Cincinnati and we miss him greatly!

#43 Todd Bryant / 97.3 River Country – Peoria , Illinois

Jeff Fox, the newest of the famed DJ’s of WBLS gets my vote. His program embodies the compass of direction of where WBLS is heading into the future of music. He’s about fun and given positive results of letting go of whatever!  His format of music lets you forget your worries and sail on. The combination of R&B and Dance lends focus to the next generation of music artist’s who also are growing up with WBLS.
