"We have pride in being involved with the show that has welcomed almost every movie star, music superstar and fresh-faced talent you can name (you can even throw in a first lady). It’s been a great 14-year run as America’s top music/variety show on cable. And now that very valuable brand is going to take its talents to the digital realm. The interactive brand you helped build, '106 & Park,’ is alive and well and it’s moving to the space in which our audience now interacts with music the most: online.” Hill said
However, the series will move exclusively to BET.com for all of 2015. But the show will still produce special events like their annual New Year's Eve show 106 & Party and is currently being hosted by Bow Wow and Keshia Chante.
