After 13 years on the air, Hot 97 has quietly pulled its iconic morning show, Ebro in the Morning. The show, hosted by Ebro Darden, Peter Rosenberg, and Laura Stylez, has been a staple of New York radio since 2012, covering hip-hop, culture, and current events.
The hosts confirmed the news on social media, with Ebro posting, “It’s done. More to come.” Peter Rosenberg reflected, “I lived out a childhood dream and it was amazing. Very excited for what’s next.”
Ebro made a response video, breaking his silence expressed gratitude to listeners, his co-hosts, and the Hot 97 team, acknowledging the role the morning show played in shaping hip-hop radio conversations over the past decade. He highlighted the platform’s cultural significance, noting that the show went beyond music to tackle social issues, politics, and community dialogue.
While details surrounding the show’s cancellation remain limited, the announcement sparked strong reactions from fans and industry peers, many crediting Ebro in the Morning for pushing boundaries and amplifying important voices. Ebro did not announce his next move but made it clear that his work in media is far from over.
Hot 97 has not announced a replacement for the morning slot, and fans are left speculating about what the hosts will do next. This move comes amid broader station changes, including shifts in other key timeslots.
The end of Ebro in the Morning marks the close of an era for one of New York’s most influential hip-hop radio programs.
