Funkmaster Flex settles Steph Lova case




Hip-Hop Disc Jockey Pleads Guilty To Harassing Rival DJ

A disc jockey for a popular hip-hop radio station was ordered to serve 35 hours of community service after pleading guilty to harassing a rival DJ.

Funkmaster Flex, 35, whose real name is Aston Taylor Jr., was arrested on assault charges last September after he allegedly choked and punched a female DJ from a rival radio station.

Taylor pleaded guilty in Manhattan Criminal Court on Monday to lesser charges of harassment. He was also issued an order of protection to stay away from Stephanie Saunders, 29, who is known as Big Steph Lova and works for WWPR-FM (105.1).

Taylor, a DJ for WQHT-FM (97.1), was accused of confronting Saunders outside his Greenwich Village radio station on Sept. 20. He was reportedly upset over allegations, made during an on-air interview that Saunders conducted, that he accepted bribes to play certain songs.

Murray Richman, Taylor's lawyer, acknowledged Monday that the two disc jockeys had a "shouting match," but said his client "never touched" Saunders.

To be fair, we should note that he was not found guilty of assaulting her.

But, now, about that payola...

Word.

What about that payola Mr. Funk Master Flex?

As far as Steph getting beat down . . . she is kinda annoying on the radio, so choking her was probably a good . . . Nah, I'm just joking . . .

No man should beat on a woman . . . EVER!

Frachise Marketing...a Flex run company is
guilty of the fuckin' payola.I'm sure Ruff
Ryders,Murder Inc.(what bullshit),Bad Boy,
the Roc-A Fella camp,and others receiving
undeserved airplay aren't going to admit to
this.I read in an article that KRS-One paid
$40,000 to play "Step Into A World" and STILL
didn't receive much airplay.Only when Sean
Combs so called remix of the record was included
on the "I Got Next" album did it have any
airplay.TURN OFF THE RADIO...not the
Underground Railroad,of course.
