Artist description Courtney “Century” Turner was born on April 16, 1982 in Detroit, Michigan. Century discovered a love for both writing and music early on in life. At the age of 15 she decided to combine the two interests and began to write songs. At Cass Technical High School, Century co-hosted “The Afternoon Recess” from 2pm-6pm weekdays on WDTR. Shortly after, she was introduced to Reggie Reg, on-air disc jockey of FM98 WJLB Detroit, who gave her an opportunity to intern as his show producer. After discovering her ability to rhyme, Reggie allowed Century to record a promo to open for his daily segment “The Four Play At Four”, first airing in January 2000. Because listeners heavily requested the promo, it has been playing in rotation for the past two years. Century is currently enrolled at Howard University in her sophomore year, majoring in Radio-TV-Film. She also works as a board operator at WPGC 95.5, “The #1 urban/hip-hop radio station in D.C., Maryland, and Virginia”. On which, Century has been interviewed twice, and one of her songs, “My Fantasy”, has received airplay on the station, as well as on Power99FM Philadelphia. Century is also in the process of recording a segment promo for “Home Jams” for WPGC 95.5FM. Century also has many upcoming live performances. In April she is opening for headliners on a 27 city tour formulated by Milyon (DaBomb Management). In June she is scheduled to open for 112 in Baltimore, MD. In August she is also scheduled to open for Cash Money Millionaires in Memphis, Tennessee. Century continues to perform at local hot spots and Howard University sponsored events. Century also had the opportunity to shoot in Atlanta, which was produced by the Fat Cats (the same company that did Motown artist Lil’ Corey’s Video). Stations that are airing “GET ON THE FLOOR” include BET Uncut and WHBC channel 51 (DC station).
