Variety music show with mixes emphasizing local hip hop, country, and metal and all other kinds of music artists from local Kentucky artists.

Reggae is a music unique to Jamaica but has its roots in New Orleans. Reggae’s direct predecessor is ska, an uptempo, rhythmic variation based on the New Orleans R&B Jamaican musicians heard broadcast from the US on their transistor radios. Relying on skittering guitar and syncopated rhythms, ska was their interpretation of R&B and it was quite popular in the early 60s. However, during one very hot summer, it was too hot to either play or dance to ska, so the beat was slowed down and reggae was born. Since then, reggae has proven to be as versatile as the blues, as it lends itself to a number of interpretations, from the melodic rock steady of Alton Ellis and the rock and folk-influenced songwriting of Bob Marley to the trippy, near-psychedelic soundscapes of dub artists like Lee Scratch and Perry. It has crossed into the mainstream through the bright, bouncy Reggae Sunsplash in festivals and pop-oriented bands like UB40, but more adventurous reggae artists, such as Marley and Perry, have influenced countless reggae, folk, rock and dance artists. Their contributions resonate throughout popular music.

Haven’t been on two wheels since you were knee-high to a bike pump? Or you just can’t get enough road time in your life?

John and Wanda are here for you, covering all things cycling in Lexington and beyond. Helping you get out and enjoy our towns and countryside – safely. If you have a topic you’d like us to cover please let us know. We’d love to hear your ideas!

John Fry has always had a love for cycling and exploring nature.  But like most of us, with a full-time career and raising a family, it’s been hard to get in a lot of road time.  In 2007 John had a short stint working at a bicycle shop that rekindled his lifelong love of cycling.  John feels that cycling offers a way to get away and achieve a peace that is hard to explain.  John believes that cycling offers numerous benefits that everyone can experience and enjoy, regardless of their lifestyle or level of fitness.

Wanda Bertram has always loved the outdoors. For years, she reveled in occasionally hitting a trail on her hybrid or mountain bike. Then in 2010, she bought a road bike and went a little nuts, logging over 3,200 miles her first season. The added euphoria of cycling the roads of Kentucky doesn’t look like it’s wearing off anytime soon.

QuedUp Radio, since its inception in 2007, has been breaking barriers to bring you the latest in music. In its infancy, QuedUp Radio was a blog on MySpace. Shortly after a hand injury and an inability to perform, Myron Guthrie aka Yaboiqued, was approached by the associates of the BlogTalkRadio network and was asked to help beta test the by adding quedUpRadio to the network. Its current format of hot topics, community service, as well as awesome independent and unsigned artists was cemented in those early days. quedUpRadio was the first show of its kind to offer varied music coupled with interviews and reviews. After his relocation to Tennessee and anticipating another move to Lexington,Kentucky, quedUpRadio was relaunched as a one minute segment on “The Josh Ayers Show,” a top rated show on Americana station, WHAY 98.3FM. The move would go on to help land quedUpRadio a full length show on University of Kentucky student led Alternative radio, WRFL 88.1.

In less than a year at WRFL 88.1 FM,quedUpRadio went from an unknown show in Lexington,Kentucky to a show in the Top 3,further pushing the envelope and raising the bar daily. We are very proud to announce that we are joining the Lexington Community Radio family at WLXU 93.9FM and will be heard on Mondays at 7PM EST in addition to our Friday show at www.BlogtalkRadio.com/quedUpRadio.

The South Bronx hip hop scene emerged in the 1960s and 1970s from neighborhood block parties thrown by the Ghetto Brothers, a group that has been described as being a gang, a club, and a music group. Members of the scene plugged in the amplifiers for their instruments and PA speakers into the lampposts on 163rd Street and Prospect Avenue and used their live music events to break down racial barriers between African-Americans, Puerto Ricans and other ethnic groups. While people unfamiliar with hip-hop culture often use the expression hip hop to refer exclusively to music, hip-hop is characterized by anywhere from four to nine distinct elements or expressive realms, of which hip-hop music is only one element.
