It's likely that you spend a lot of time listening to the radio while in Atlanta traffic, in the office or while relaxing at home.

This week's Best of Atlanta poll is in search of our city's favorite urban radio personalities. They share a bit of news and lot of laughs in between spinning the latest Drake track or an old school Anita Baker record.

If your favorite radio host brings a smile to your face on the regular and plays your favorite hip-hop and R&B, then we want to celebrate them.

In a city full of talent, our urban radio family is another important group that stands out from the crowd.

Note: This list is designated for our radio shows that record in Atlanta, so some fan favorites like “The Breakfast Club,” which is syndicated but based in New York, are not listed.

If you'd like to submit a write-in nominee for best urban radio personality, please email your pick to stephanie.toone@ajc.com.
