PJ Butta

Former KKBT on-air personality, PJ returns to Los Angeles radio airwaves doing mornings (6-10am) on 93.5 KDAY.

PJ began his radio career at now defunct LA urban station, KKBT (The Beat), working his way up from promotions intern to on-air personality, where he did overnights and evenings for 10 years. After KKBT, PJ worked on-air at rhythmic AC station KHHT (Hot 92.3).

PJ says, "I said the day I come back to radio is the day Arsenio Hall comes back to late-night TV. Well, I really didn’t expect either to happen. But it has and I’m excited to be back and working at KDAY. To be able to stay in LA, do afternoons, and play the music I grew up to and still love is a no brainer! I look forward to building on the foundation that GM Zeke Chaidez, PD A.D. Scott and the rest of the KDAY staff have already laid down.”

In addition to his new afternoon shift on KDAY, PJ will continue teaching broadcasting classes at Mt. San Antonio College (Mt. SAC), DJing in the clubs, and recording his internationally syndicated Top 20 Hip Hop and R&B countdown, The World Chart Show, which is aired on over 25 stations from Africa to New Zealand and throughout the Caribbean, as well as his weekly one-hour new music mixshow, Another Butta Bootleg Show.

* Still owns a pair of Hammer pants and is waiting for them to come back in style
 
* Likes to suffer. That's why he roots for the Chargers and Padres.
