The Reggae Link Radio Show
Reggae Link Radio Executive Producer
Joe Neish is the force behind Reggae Link Radio. Already
a successful business owner and entrepreneur (Uncle
Joe’s Jerk Chicken and Fireworks Sound), Joe saw
a need for Caribbean programming in the Chicago radio
scene and took steps to fill it.
“I’ve been in Chicago 20 years and there’s
never been reggae on mainstream radio,” says Joe.
“I would hear it on college stations but never
outside of that. With Reggae Link Radio, we have the
opportunity to be the first.”
Joe became involved with Power 92.3 when placing ads
on the station. While talking to a Power 92 ad executive,
he learned that the station had recently been exploring
the possibility of incorporating a reggae show into
its programming. He decided to make it a reality.
Joe assembled the Reggae Link Radio team: The Ladies
of Reggae and Dj Lenky.
Joe sees Reggae Link Radio as a way to bridge the gap
between hip hop and reggae. He looks forward to working
with Power 92.3 to bring Caribbean programming to the
forefront of Chicago radio.
