How do you become a radio personality?!


Question:

How do you become a radio personality?

I think it would be amazing to be a shock jock and interview celebs. I really think I would be good at that, I'm 17 right now so I know there's a lot to learn. My only draw back is my voice. It's not unique or interesting sounding. Will anyone hire me if Im great, but my voice is just plain?....Im from Delaware raised in the suburbs, Im black and i want to be on a hip-hop station but i dont talk 'ghetto'


Answers:

Actually, in my opinion, most of the female hip-hop RP's seem to talk professional, and they usually have normal voices. You also don't need a lot of musical knowledge, since they're usually hired because of their persona. One easy way to get experience is by joining the radio club at college. Usually, they give everyone a shot, and then pick the best few people to host the shows. This is a great thing to add to your resume when you apply for your first gig. Also, apply to every possible radio station. Whether it's classical, country, heavy metal, jazz, or showtunes, any job will help you get the next one. Night gigs help as well. You can also try to get a different job at the station, since any connection will help you get your foot in the door. One last thing: you don't need a degree in broadcasting/journalism, but it probably would help.

Also, don't call anyone "nappy headed hoes." You might get fired.
