JEREMY ON Y, THAT IS WHY!
The name Jeremy may sound new to some people but apparently not those who have been ardent listeners of Vibe fm in the days when this young and talented presenter, had the mandate to host the YOUNG VIBE and SUNSHINE CAFE of the station. She had a unique way of mesmerizing her listeners who couldn’t hide their love for her but called into her shows and pat her on the shoulders whiles others asked for a date.
My first meeting with her personally was at the 4syte studios when I passed by her without making her out even though I have been a fervent listener of Vibe fm and some of her programs if not all. I was later told by a friend I met there that, the lady I just passed by was Jeremy. I now looked at her again and said hi. She responded in a mannerly way slanting a smile on her face.
She was no doubt one of the reasons why a lot of people tuned into Vibe fm then until when I heard her voice on another Asylum down based station called Yfm. Her move to Yfm though came as a surprise to me despite the fact that she had contributed her quota to Vibe fm and has every right to bow out of the station and move on.
On Yfm, another youth oriented Accra based station like Vibe fm, she presents a program called the Y Lounge. The program starts from 7pm to 10pm Mondays to Fridays just after the ‘Drive of your life’, hosted by the baritone voice presenter Nana Kwame Osei Sarpong. The Y lounge starts with a signature tune that introduces her in a unique way.
Her sweet soft voice then bust out from behind the Mic and no one will tell you that’s Jeremy on Y. On her program she has a segment she calls the ‘triple play’ where she plays three songs on a roll from one artiste. She also has the segment where she basically plays three songs from Ghanaian artiste even though her program features only R and B songs.
One thing that won her so many admirers is her sense of benevolence when she was on Vibe fm. She was noted for putting smiles on the faces of people. These people she made their wishes came true by asking them to text their wishes and dreams on her programs. After the show one person that crew thinks his or her wish is very touching and quiet interesting is picked and granted the request.
With her on Yfm to complement her efforts in making sure the music keep dropping and listeners still keep in tuned is a lady DJ called Kess who sometimes appears unassuming and a bit reserved to me. Together they form a great combination on the station and seem to have control over the program which is why a lot of listeners have fallen in love with the station.
For those of her fans who think they have lost Jeremy for good, they missing out because she is still doing her thing on Yfm. Tune in to her program from Monday-Thursday 7pm-10pm and experience the same Jeremy doing what she does best. Jeremy on Y, that is why!
