Blues Cues time.. First & foremost #RipFitzroyGordon 🙏🏾 thank you for believing in us. ❤️ The Gift & the curse of Morning Radio, gift is being the flagship..curse is when it's time for change, the flagship often has to sail 🙏🏾🙏🏾☺️ to do a decade at a black station everyone said wouldn’t last 6 months & do it in true Mark & Jem style, unapologetically black & Caribbean, mixing humour & humility, politics & passa passa 😉 in a difficult Canadian Radio landscape just to brighten your mornings was a pleasure & an honour that we never took lightly 🙏🏾🙏🏾 thank you for making us family ❤️❤️❤️ from aunty Jemmy’s babies who sent vids of themselves singing “jem is my name” 🥰 to all the artists who came in for an interview & left as bredrins ❤️📢📢 to the parents who would call frantically if the eediot ting was late because their kids wouldn’t leave the car for school till they heard it. 😩 To the Caribbean grannies who collectively & fiercely adopted mark & I as their radio grandkids esp after I lost my grandmother 🥺 & they blanketed me w love & support. To the woman who told us that as her mother was dying of cancer it got to a point where the only thing that would guarantee a smile in the morn was when she’d say “turn on Mark and Jem” 🥺💔😢 (that one still gets me) You are the reason we do radio. To my co -D my bestie, my cousin from another Muslim (strong dat bad right?!😂👊🏾) @strizzzyeverywhere my other half you are a blessing in my life, you make me laugh harder than anyone else, you’ve always ALWAAAAYS got my back (as I’ve got yours) where I fall short you are .. STRONG and no one can compete with the support & adoration committee that is mark strong when he loves you 🙏🏾 We’ve travelled the world together and made history together yet AGAIN!!! and the coolest part is that on or off radio it’s always #MarkAndJem❤️👊🏾👊🏾 I don’t know what the the plans are for the new g987 but as the only platform for black and Caribbean audiences to see and hear themselves it is our hope that you feel reflected 🙏🏾. in the words of Strizzy “for all the prayers you have stored for Me & Jem be sure to #prayforblackradio #stayblack we LOVE you Toronto!!! https://www.instagram.com/p/CT405DUo1-SOMVKgPINJZiaE-8nHrTOydm0Bsw0/?utm_medium=tumblr
