MO Exlcusive- 100.3 The Beat Insider Weighs In on Charlamagne Firing: “I’m 100 Percent Sure He Was Let Go Because of The Beanie Sigel Interview”
Posted by Media Outrage on November 3, 2009
The drama has really popped off and things have gotten quite messy in Philly because of an interview Charlamagne did with Beanie Sigel in which he aired out the dirty laundry between he and Jay-Z. Yesterday Charlamagne was fired from Philly’s 100.3 The Beat. He hasn’t come out and said that it was definitely because of Jay-Z but he is speculating like the rest of us. We spoke with an employee of Philly’s 100.3 The Beat and this is what they told us under condition of anonymity:
MO: Was Charlamagne fired because of his interview with Beanie Sigel?
Person: Yes, I am 100% sure that he was let go because of his interview with Beanie Sigel.
MO: So you’re not speculating like the rest of us right now?
Person: No
MO: Why would they do that though, knowing that that interview brought high ratings?
Person: You have to understand as I’m very sure that he already does, the station has to maintain an amicable relationship with Jay-Z and his camp because this man is the biggest rapper in the game right now. Infact, he’s not really even a rapper anymore. He’s a business. So you can’t risk ruining a relationship like that just to draw ratings. A radio personality can always be replaced and with the proper set-up, put in a position to succeed. It’s better for the station to replace that person than ruin a relationship with someone who has been on top of the game for years now.
MO: So you are saying that you are really 100% sure that Charlamagne was fired because of his interview with Beanie Sigel?
Person: Yes. I can’t really go into the particulars but that’s what I was told. Is it foul? Yes. This is the business that we are in though.
MO: Thank you very much for taking the time to speak with us.

Damn, thats fucked up. Maybe he can get back with his Transvestite and be the Robin to her Batman again.
November 3, 2009 at 3:26 pm
Definitely fucked up!
Damn shame the way folk ride Gay-Z/Camel Joe’s nuts! Fuck him! He ain’t GOD!
November 3, 2009 at 3:36 pm
Oh well, if all else fails there’s still LIL’ WAYNE….like i said Jay a “PUNK A S S” 4 doin’ the SCANDALOUS S H I T he does 1st the Bet Awards now this…..I WISH BEANS BEAT DA’ SHIT OUT HIS ASS!
November 3, 2009 at 3:45 pm
Damn Jay-Z is a Don like that. Charlamagne was cool and good for Philly. I guess he really is running that town.
November 3, 2009 at 4:28 pm
That’s fucked up. Shout out to C Tha God for keeping it 100 and Beanz for exposing the bitch that Gay Z really is. It’s a shame how people get money and stab their boys in the back.
Best Rapper Ever? Please. He’s just a nigga with money and the shit done gone to his head. Take account, people. God don’t like ugly and this is a STR8 UP BROWN BAGGER MOVE! Sean Carter has just signed his own death sentence–physically and financially. Quote me on this!
November 3, 2009 at 4:36 pm
Unkle Death… you are so right, god dont like ugly, see Jay Z need to understand god can take every fucking thing that he has in a blink of an eye, his day will come, he is not above anyone! he certainly cannot go against gods wrath, he will see!!! his day shall come

HMMMM!

This is horrible news but hopefully the MO scoop will let everyone know the OTHER side of the game. Jay-Z is not the best EVER anymore than Michael Jordan. Folks acted like MJ would forever be the greatest baller alive until the likes of Kobe & LeBron. Is Jay-Z talented? Yes, but there will ALWAYS be someone younger and better, creepin in the background, learning from YOUR mistakes & waiting for a chance. The day will come when Jay-Z is old news & I can’t wait to see it.

All this REALLY means is that the station’s PD (or reasonable facsimile) is not willing to lose their good-ole payola dollars. Read between the lines if you want the truth!
November 3, 2009 at 9:19 pm
Congrads MO, you all are on every other blog about this interview …However I always thought he got fired because of Jay-z.
November 3, 2009 at 10:07 pm
Sweat-Tea i hv to disagree…u cant compare Kobe and Lebron to Mike…Mike had a bigger impact on the game than both these cats…on and off. but yall see wat happen whn u fuck wit the big dogz!

A week after he was let go from NY he had a satellite radio show, left there for Philly, so I’m sure he’ll land on his feet quickly.
November 3, 2009 at 11:48 pm
But welcome to the world of media in all forms. Radio, TV, newspapers.

I guess Jay has forgot about his days when he was young and on the grind trying to obtain a better way of life….he shouldn’t have got that dude terminated over an interview, that’s how that man eats and puts food on the table!…I never ever respected a person that abuses their authority, especially over some bullsh!@!!
But I guess if the Beanie Sigel interview was all lies, then Charlamagne would still have his job….Beans always said he speaks the Truth (every time I step in the booth)!

I figured that.
November 4, 2009 at 3:19 am
People like him will make it, doing what they do best, talk to much about nothing but a bunch of bullshit !!!
November 4, 2009 at 3:54 am
Hmmm
November 4, 2009 at 7:20 am
Why is everybody getting mad a JayZ for being who he is. The man that got the interview should have known what to expect after that interview… I don’t even know people wanna act all shocked and appalled
November 4, 2009 at 11:15 am
^^^^^^^^^^^^^The same reason that everyone is mad at Bernie Madoff, Rush Limbaugh and Charles Manson. Sane people who have a clue tend get mad when “being who you are” effects other peoples lives in a NEGATIVE way, and for no good fuckin reason
This clown is taking that “Hova” shit real literal, then you got pee ons tucking their tail and running. I heard him and his wife was dabbling on the darkside. It’s starting to make sense.
