610 WAGG Parts Ways with Leo Taylor and Pisani Baldwin Standfield

In a surprising turn of events, 610 WAGG, one of Birmingham’s historic radio stations, has let go of two of its long-standing on-air personalities, Leo Taylor and Pisani Baldwin Standfield. The station, known for its deep connection with Birmingham’s gospel community, relieved Standfield of her position earlier today (as announced through her social media post), leaving listeners and fans shocked. Longtime program director Jay Bryant is retiring. Taylor was let go last week.

They have been staples of the WAGG lineup for decades, known for their impact on the city’s gospel music scene, especially Taylor’s “Birthday Song” and Standfield’s daily prayer.

Fans have already taken to social media to express their disappointment and gratitude for the contributions of Taylor and Stanfield. Some are calling for the station to reverse its decision, emphasizing the influential role the pair have played in shaping Birmingham’s gospel landscape.

This unexpected move marks a significant shift in the station’s direction, and gospel music lovers across Birmingham are left wondering what’s next for both 610 WAGG and the beloved radio personalities.
