Hot 97's DJ Cipha Sounds Suspended Indefinitely



New York's Hot 97 radio station has suspended morning show host DJ Cipha Sounds indefinitely.

The suspension comes on the heels of a protest in front of the radio station calling for the jock's termination. Protesters included Haitian groups like BelTiFi, the Haitian American Caucus and the Haitian Roundtable.

As previously reported, Cipha made racist remarks toward Haitians during his morning broadcast with Peter Rosenberg and K. Fox last Friday on December 17th. Cipha stated, "The reason I'm H.I.V. negative is 'cause I don't mess with Haitian girls."

He later apologized and said he always reps for Haitians and West Indian people. "I wanna say sincerely that I apologize for even saying this thing."
