The D.L. Hughley Show

Hughley has worked as a radio presenter. He hosted The D.L. Hughley Morning Show On July 20, 2009, which premiered on WRKS (now WEPN), more popularly known at the time as 98.7 Kiss FM, an urban adult contemporary station in New York City.

The show, airing from 6–10 am, placed Hughley in direct competition with his fellow “King of Comedy” Steve Harvey, whose nationally syndicated Steve Harvey Morning Show airs in New York on WBLS (Kiss FM’s longtime rival).

There were plans to take Hughley’s show into syndication as well. However, a dispute regarding his salary erupted between Kiss FM’s parent company and the potential syndication company. Later in August 2010, Kiss FM dropped the show from its schedule, and Hughley moved on to other endeavors.

REACH Media, the syndicator founded by Tom Joyner, on August 12, 2013, announced it had finalized a deal with D.L. to host a new nationally syndicated afternoon drive show, The D.L. Hughley Show, distributed by Cumulus Media Networks.
