Late last week, one of their biggest shareholders dumped all their Urban One stock.
Then yesterday, the Urban One stock went through the roof. Go figure.

They’re the only black-owned radio company with the word “urban” that even the Grammys and iHeart are rebuking as racist and outdated euphemism for genres such as hip-hop and R&B.

One speculated buyer has been identified and if this is to be the new owner, all the Urban One optimism could be worth it.
