The world premier of Jonzun Radio Kids is Saturday, September 1, 2007, from 12:30pm -1pm (EST), and will stream worldwide on www.WPUL1590.com &  www.JonzunRadioKids.com. 

 

Shali is certainly no alien to terrestrial radio. Some of the Music Legends, Celebrities, and Artists that Shali has had the honor of interviewing as Co-Host with his Show Host dad, and Co-Host mom (Cherry), on Audition Radio include: Pop Icon Tiffany,  Vocal Group Hall of Fame Inductee & Grammy Nominated Music Legend Mr. Walter Scott of The Whispers, Dir. of Communications Committee for the American Academy of Pediatrics, Dr. Donald Shiffrin, Oil On Canvas Master Artist, Dr. Arthur Rayford, 14 Year Old Opera Sensation who performed a duet with Mr. Andrea Bocelli, Miss.

Al Sharpton, Florida State Rep. of District 27,  Rep. Joyce Cusack, Disco Diva , Ms. Joyce Sims, and Original Soul Train Dancer & Choreographer to the Stars, Mr. Tyrone Proctor.

 

How did Shali become a Space Boy cadet? Well his dad  Michael “Space Cowboy” Jonzun of Legendary Electro-Boogie Hip-Hop posse Jonzun Crew (a recognized forefather of Hip-Hop; Source Mag ) is known throughout the galaxy for being a 500+ Multi-Platinum, Platinum, Gold, and Silver Records &  Albums Hit Songwriter, Producer, and Music Industry Consultant who has collectively sold 200+  Million Records worldwide on 13 Rock & Roll Hall of Fame Inductees and 50+ Super Star Artists- -including Mick Jaggar w/ Peter Wolf, P. Diddy,  New Kids On The Block, New Edition - -, he also touts (13) #1, (19) “Top Ten”, and (32) “Top 40” Billboard Chart Hits, and is the Co-Writer of the largest selling ringtone in history (“Laffy Taffy” by D4L; which Jonzun just received ASCAP’s “Pop Music Award” as Writer & Publisher for being “Among the Most Performed Songs of 2006”).

 

A recent radio interview with Shali on Audition Radio, regarding his new show, featuring excerpts from his interviews with Mr. Walter Scott of The Whispers, and Rev. Al Sharpton, is available on-demand on his website  www.JonzunRadioKids.com.  As a point of interest, his interview with Rev. Sharpton at a press conference, brought him mention in the Daytona Beach News-Journal, The Daytona Times, on MSNBC.com, and garnered the attention of several television news stations.

 

Jonzun Jr.’s top priority for his show, “Is to get kids & teens to start tuning-in and becoming involved in talk radio regularly.”   “For the most part, talk shows will talk about us [kids], but not directly with us. I want kids to be heard by other kids, adults, and seniors on the radio," continued Shali. The targeted demographic for Jonzun Radio Kids is ages 7-14, and their families.

 

What can listeners expect? According to Shali, “Jonzun Radio Kids will always bring listeners a whole lot of fun!”  He invites kids and teens around the globe to become involved in his show and website. If you have something that's on your mind, a special talent, video footage from a recent trip you took or place you visited, news story, a band that the world needs to hear, an opinion on a recent movie or book, or anything else that you'd like to share with our listeners, we'd love to hear from you through our website.

 

While Jonzun Radio Kids will be playing and interviewing signed celebrity teen Recording Artists, we will certainly be breaking young indi Artists.  With the major tween entertainment networks generally providing support to their own acts, Jonzun Radio Kids will serve this young indi Artist niche. 

 

In spite of busy schedules, Shali will continue to Co-host Audition Radio, and his parents will be the Producers of Jonzun Radio Kids.  So listeners will be able to hear Shali, Saturdays from 12:30-1pm (EST) on his show, and again from 1pm-3pm (EST) on Audition Radio.  It’ll be like a “Shali-thon”, coined Shali.

 

Shali feels blessed to have this opportunity to have a worldwide voice at radio, and sincerely thanks everyone responsible.  He understands, not everyone has the breaks he’s had, and hopes his show will continue to inspire and help others to fulfill their dreams.

 

In his spare time, this fifth grade homeschooler enjoys go-karting, video games, reading (he’s read aprox.1,000 books in his lifetime and  has won numerous awards), amusement parks, road trips, visiting museums, the zoo, writing jokes and short stories. In fact, speaking of writing, President George W. Bush wrote Shali back, with a photo and letter of encouragement to continue to be involved in his community, read, and learn something new each day.
