In his new role, Ocean will be responsible for network radio affiliate relations for a new program called Kid Kelly Daily—a five-hour ’80s show hosted by Kelly and offered in a fully-produced format including music, as well as a Plain Wrap version consisting of voice tracks only for Classic Hits, AC and Hot AC stations.
“Big thanks to Kid Kelly for this amazing opportunity to help extend his legendary platform in new ways by creating daily, entertaining, original content built upon his pioneering brands,” shared Ocean.
Kelly added, “When I decided to explore this new opportunity, I wanted the best person available, there was only one individual that I had in mind for this job.
