Join us in congratulating TT TORREZ, Vice President of Artist and Label Relations and Music Director, Hot 97 Radio, our recognized “Hero Behind The Culture” for #BlackMusicMonth. TT is a multimedia personality and shot caller at Hip Hop’s oldest running radio station and one of the most powerful women in the game. At HOT, TT wears many hats, and is the gatekeeper for the radio station. She oversees the station’s music, makes sure FCC regulations are being followed, manages the day to day operations of the staff, as well as the touch, feel and the fabric of the station and manages the relationships with artists, label reps, or anyone on the outside.
Born in the Bronx and educated at Norfolk State University, she hosted a weekday morning show on the college station. She secured her first commercial gig in Charlotte, NC at WCHH 92.7, and found herself going back and forth from her college to her part time gig in another state every day. After Charlotte, she landed in Charleston, SC at WSSP 94.3 as the morning show producer for Russ Parr and hosted her own midday show. She moved on to Washington, DC at WKYS, Power 104 in Hartford, CT, Music Choice in NYC, Philadelphia and Richmond, VA where she became music director. By 2014, TT was at Hot 97, in an executive role.
Now continuing in the tradition of diversifying herself, TT is tapping into the worlds of TV, film, podcasting and books.
Follow her on all platforms @TTTorrez.
TT, the Living Legends Foundation recognizes your hard work and love for the culture. We see you and now others will too!
