The Bible says that we must give honor to whom honor is due (Romans 13:7). Wade “DJ Wade O” Harris is long over due on his portion of honor. He has a Christian Radio show called “The Wade O Radio Show” which has been on air for over 3 years. Dj Wade O just hit the 200th episode mark on March 12th 2011. This is phenomenal for radio in general but, for Christian Radio geared towards Christian Rap, Christian R & B, and Reggae & Dancehall Gospel this is truly spectacular!
To give a little background on DJ Wade O, he got his start in radio doing a secular radio show at Howard University where he attended. He was djaying longside Nas, Busta Rhymes, Alicia Keys, DJ Clue, Fabulous, DMX, Biz Markie, Mos Def, Baby Sham, Ashanti and Mobb Deep. There a came a point where he was fed up and was quoted saying,
“Despite that “worldly success,” I was spiritually bankrupt. I was never truly at peace. I knew I needed to make a change in my life, but I was scared. I didn’t want to miss out on all of the fun. I thought that when I finally grew up, then I would get serious about serving the Lord.In 2002, my life changed. A good friend gave me a book written by former hip‐hop superstar Ma$e entitledRevelations. Through Ma$e’s (now Pastor Mason Betha) testimony, I was reintroduced to Jesus Christ.”
Dj Wade O has one of the #1 most listened to Christian Radio shows in the world! He has a potential listener base of 6 million listeners; he’s syndicated on over 15 different online radio stations. Also he is syndicated on over 10 different live radio networks not including his 3 stations on Bridge FM in New York where the show is broadcast live 11pm- 1am every Saturday.
