WFCBRadio.com Moves to the Parker Hanneflin Building in Greater Collinwood

The stars of The Outlaws Radio Show: Eric "E-Will" Williams, Jessica "Lavish" Fleming, & show creator Darvio "The Kingpin" Morrow

Darvio Morrow, CEO of urban and multicultural content producer FCB Entertainment Inc (owners of WFCB Radio) is a Collinwood native. Darvio, known on air as The Kingpin, went to school in the neighborhood and volunteers his time with area youth in the Eyes Have It program, but his business has always been located elsewhere -- until now.

FCB Entertainment has agreed to move from the former LTV Steel headquarters in Slavic Village to the former Parker Hannefin Building, now named Chandler Park, on 17325 Euclid Avenue.

"There were so many benefits to relocating that it would have made no sense not to do it", says Darvio. "We were somewhat isolated in our previous location but now we are on the legendary Euclid Avenue and we feel like we are a part of something that could be catalytic for the community."

FCB Entertainment's WFCB Radio, one of the fastest growing urban digital radio groups in the region, will be bringing its three radio stations and its radio shows along for the ride. The Outlaws Radio Show (hosted by Darvio, Jessica "Lavish" Fleming and Eric "E-Will" Williams), The Todd Allyn Show (hosted by Todd Allyn, Khalid Namar and Danielle Serino, formerly from CBS Channel 19) and most of the company's other shows will be produced directly from the Chandler Club location.

"We will probably be some of the only radio stations located directly in the Collinwood area. I'll have to check the history books but that may be a first ever for this community", said Darvio. "I spoke to every member of my team about the relocation and they were all excited about it."

Darvio believes that the Chandler Club can serve as an anchor to an area of Greater Collinwood that may not receive as much attention as it should. "Development follows people. If you look in the thriving communities in the city, they almost all have some sort of anchor to spur development around it. The Chandler Club can serve as that anchor."

For now, Darvio's WFCB radio studio and corresponding offices will be located in the Chandler Club. But if it is a fruitful relationship for the company, growth could be in the future. "We also own an on demand television station and two record companies", Darvio said. "One of my labels is currently based in Nevada. I would love to eventually have everything consolidated and based in one roof. We'll see."

WFCB Radio can be heard online at WFCBRadio.com or on smartphones via the Live365 or TuneIn Radio apps (type WFCB in the search bar)
