Media Release

Get ready for Jin & Ryan! The new hitz.fm Morning Crew with their spanking new & fresh Gotchas plus all the hitz that you love!

hitz.fm embarks into the brand new year, fronting Jin and Ryan as the station’s Morning Crew. The duo, who used to host hitz Live in the evening, would be hitting the hitz.fm morning airwaves starting 14 January 2013. hitz.fm Content Manager, Raqeem Brian expressed the excitement of having Jin and Ryan as the new hitz.fm Morning Crew.

“Jin and Ryan are young talents, who have not only established themselves on radio, but also in the entertainment industry. With their vibrant personalities and on air compatibility, they would definitely be able to rock the airwave in the morning.”

The idea to partner Jin and Ryan on hitz Live in 2011 was a success as the show garnered a total of 858,000 listeners in Nielsen Audience Measurement, Wave 2, 2012, which is also the most listened to late evening programmes amongst the English radio stations. hitz.fm is also Malaysia’s No.1 English radio station, with 1.7 million listeners tuning in weekly.

Jin and Ryan were ecstatic when they found out that they were given the opportunity to host the No.1 English breakfast show in the country.

“It is an honour to be the hitz.fm Morning Crew as the show is well known for being wacky and entertaining. It is our responsibility to accompany listeners to school and work in the morning and keeping them entertained at the same time.”

Besides having new Morning Crew, hitz.fm offers listeners the opportunity to take home prizes worth RM 100,000, by taking part in the station’s contests. Cover Me and Tag Team are the two brand new features on the Morning Crew segments. Cover Me that goes on air at 8 am, rewards listeners with cash prizes by guessing a cover version of song snippet correctly. Tag Team is a segment that engages two listeners to work together, where one needs to name a short phrase given by the new hitz.fm Morning Crew correctly, using only sound effects.
