Brianna Price who is better known by her stage name B.Traits yesterday announced something really sad. She took over to her social media handle and in a video she announced that she is leaving BBC Radio 1 after being with the station for six years. With her stunning ability to bridge underground music from techno to jungle to house, she became an established and respected radio broadcaster for BBC Radio 1.

“It is with a heavy yet excited heart that after 6 years of presenting my show on BBC Radio 1, I have decided to say goodbye to the station to focus on new projects. This hasn’t been an easy decision to make. To be blessed with the opportunity to play the music I love and am passionate about to the world is a huge honor, but this last summer has been my busiest yet and I’ve been struggling to balance the show with DJ gigs, studio production, label duties, as well as the other projects I have on the go and the new adventures I’m about to embark on. For me, the show has always been its best when it is live, and due to my gig schedule, I found myself having to pre-record much more than I would have liked to. It’s important to me that the quality of the show maintains a high standard, and at this time of my career, there are new, young, projects that need my undivided attention, so I have decided to step down and let Radio 1 make way for a new Friday night schedule”

In the video, she revealed a number of reasons why she will be leaving the radio station after a long period of six years which includes the unavailability of time needed to make the show the best it can be. Her Friday night show was allowed her to explore the deeper and darker sounds of European house and techno. Anyway, she has also mentioned that she will be focusing more on her new projects, so we can simply wait for some new announcement from the Canadian prodigy.

Here’s the video she posted on Facebook: 

B. Traits will be hosting her last show on October 26th, make sure you don’t miss it!
