The fact that Elijah Williams and
Keemal “Pringles” Griffith chose
to launch their new radio station
on April 1 three years ago might
suggest -- jokingly, that is -- that the
idea was foolish to begin with. After
all, what on Earth had compelled
the duo to resign from their
comfortable jobs at another local
radio station to open yet another
radio station?
One word sums it all up: ambition.
Since hitting the airwaves three
years ago, VYBE Radio became
an instant hit with listeners and
fans on Facebook where some of
their programmes are streamed
live. Griffith believes that such
interactivity will evolve into
something bigger. Aside from
building a wider listenership, he
added that the station’s emphasis
is on building relationships with
sponsors and supporters.
“As a radio station, we’ve continued
to grow from the inception.
However, we’re still not where we’d
like to be because there’s still so
much more that we want to do,”
Griffith, the station’s Managing
Director, told me.
