ZJ Liquid, real name Michael Brissett, may have found himself in trouble once again. Speculation is active as to whether disciplinary action will be taken against the popular ZJ after an incident that took place during his 'Fresh 2 Death' segment on Wednesday.
The ZIP FM disc jock played an unedited version of Andrew and Wada Blood's new song Beggy Beggy on Wednesday in which an expletive was aired. The ZJ immediately covered up the blunder by switching to another song but not before it was noticed by a number of listeners.
expletive on air
Playing an expletive on air is in direct violation of the Broadcasting Commission's rules and regulations. Since the incident the radio station has been playing apologies not naming which programme it happened on. Speculation has been going around as to whether the ZJ will be getting yet another suspension, especially after ZJ Ice filled Liquid's signature 2 p.m.- 6 p.m. slot yesterday.
Several attempts to reach both ZJ Liquid and ZIP FM's station manager D'Adra Williams were unsuccessful yesterday.
When contacted, Chad Young of IRIE FM, parent company of ZIP FM, told THE WEEKEND STAR that no information on the matter could be given at the moment and news will soon be made available to the public.
This will be Liquid's, second blunder since the start of the year. In February Liquid was suspended indefinitely for playing an unedited version of Aidonia's Love It on his show. The ZJ returned to air a month later.
During his absence from radio a 'Put ZJ Liquid back on air' group was formed on social networking site Facebook.com to protest his absence. Since its start in February the page has gained over 7,000 fans.
Yesterday on the page a fan commented, "Guys, I just heard an announcement on Zip about removing some individuals cause of unfit material being played and today di boss ain't on air! Anybody know if him good? Mi poor heart really cyaan tek di stress enuh."
On social networking site Twitter.com, the news of Liquid's absence from radio yesterday also got a few comments with one person stating, "... again, Liquid's gone again?" Liquid also recently started deejaying and shot a video for his song Party Haad at the Blaze Nightclub in Portmore, St Catherine.
