TT Torrez is a well-known radio personality on Hot 97 and the producer of the Summer Jam Concert. “Depending on availability and popularity for our artists and Dj’s, it can be very challenging when we are planning this event. We usually start as early as a week after the previous concert to plan the next Summer Jam,” said TT Torrez.
“Our Summer Jams are full with 50,000+ Hip Hop heads who want to have a good time with their favorite artists. A lot of our performers time their music releases around Summer Jam so they can perform it to a large audience. It’s a big deal!”
DJ Enuff is another prominent DJ and radio personality on Hot 97.“As a fellow New Yorker, I am mostly excited to see the New York Hip Hop artists representing their own area. Summer Jam is one of the few shows that is centered around urban music. This show is for people who enjoy Hip Hop music and as long as it keeps evolving, Summer Jam will be there to support!” said DJ Enuff.
