J.J. Fernandez, better known by his on air name JJ, is a radio announcer for hitz.fm's breakfast show The Morning Crew, the No.1 English radio show in Malaysia.
Starting out as a Prado Cruiser in the late 1990s, JJ' is the only hitz.fm radio announcer to have hosted all its time slots. In 2003, management decided to inject new life into the morning crew by pairing up Fly Guy with a young promising radio talent Rudy Sufian and moving Li'l Kev to Drive. Managements decision did not sit well with the then Morning Crew and Li'l Kev convinced Fly Guy to leave with him. With the departure of Li'l Kev and Fly Guy, being the backup Morning Crew JJ and Rudy were called in to replace them.
JJ comes from a broadcasting family. His father, a radio announcer himself, has been doing the sports commentary on Arena Sukan over RTMs English radio network since the early 1960s. His elder brother Joshua Fernandez is an award winning TVC film director.
