Nspirational Conversations
The King of Radio,
The Mayor of Bronzeville,
The man who fed us the Dusty Diner,
Herb Kent The Kool Gent,
has made his transition
into Radio Heaven after 70 years
in radio, 27 of those years
in Chicago!

Herbie Baby, 88 years young,
passed away Saturday, October 22nd
after giving his final broadcast.

Years of watching and working with Herb,
was truly a dream come true for me.  
I listened to Herb as a kid,
then to get a chance to work
in the same industry!
Same radio station!
On the same floor!
Right down the hall?

Ony God
could make that dream reality!



After getting off the air at
Gospel Radio 1390AM

(Now Inspiration 1390) 
I would walk 
down the hall, 
into the studio with Herb

(with my little handycam
ready to film.  

Traci, his veteran Producer and
Ken Smith/ABC 7 Camera man or
Cadillac Sam, would be there.

I knew he would be telling a corny joke
or great story about some group
that he had helped put on the map!

We all knew that 
Battle of The Best
would be good, no matter who
was competing! 


Herb was always gracious, allowing me 
to film him and his guests.  

Some of my favorites were my cuzn'
Smokey Robinson, 
Gerald and Eddie LeVert and
Chaka Kahn!


He has influenced the lives of Millions!
Few of today's Radio Personalities
will have longevity in radio as
Herbert Rogers Kent!

Since Corporate America has taken over,
long gone are the days where the DJ
has the power to make or break
a new artist.  

The PROGRAMMING Dept. handles that!

Herb programmed his show with love
for years.  He took his time to choose the
song he knew you wanted to hear.

NO JOCK has that power anymore!
(Not major market anyway, unless...)


We may no longer hear his voice, but 
you can still see clips of him on
hln-tv show
where I had the honor and privledge!
Hope you enjoy it as much as I did!
