Like Wendy Williams, Angie Martinez has been a popular radio personality for many years. The former rapper, now nicknamed the “Voice Of New York,” started out at New York’s popular radio station WQHT, widely known as Hot 97. She worked for the station for 25 years, before making the switch to Hot 97’s competitor Power 105.

Over the years, Angie crossed paths with Wendy Williams. By now, most fans know Wendy has never been one to mince words and, apparently, she’s been that way since the very beginning. Now, Angie has spilled the beans about the one time Wendy took things a bit too far. Wendy may have started it but Angie definitely finished it.

All the drama started when Wendy started taking jabs at Angie on and off the air. This was around the time Angie was dating Q-Tip and Wendy felt compelled to out “one of her co-workers.” However, she didn’t stop there. She also took a jab at Q-Tip accusing the rapper of being gay.”

“One of my co-workers is dating Q-Tip from A Tribe Called Quest,” Wendy allegedly wrote on her website. “Oh well. I guess some women like men who like men.”

In her book, My Voice: A Memoir, Angie shared details about her reaction to the situation. “Everybody was gay to Wendy,” Angie wrote. “Every rapper you could think of in that era, I had heard Wendy Williams call them gay. Not one or two. Like every one of them.”

After a while, Angie got tired of Wendy’s statements and decided to take matters into her own hands. At one of the radio station’s Tribeca offices, she and Wendy had it out. “I lost my f–king mind,” Angie said in the book. “Before I knew it, I was swinging at her. It was a quick scuffle. It took only a few seconds for me to realize that she wasn’t really hitting me back — she was just trying to get me off of her.”

The fight was broken up by a co-worker, but Wendy didn’t stop there, says Angie. She actually tried to defend herself – with a mop. In the book, Angie said Wendy “just stood there with it like she wanted to have some sort of sword fight or something. It was actually kind of funny, even in the moment.”

Apparently, the fight is actually the reason Wendy was eventually fired. Angie ended up taking over her spot. Of course, Wendy’s loyal fans weren’t pleased and Angie actually revealed she received threats from the talk show host’s fans. But, she believes Wendy was bound to come across “the wrong one” because of how she treats people. “The truth is that if it wasn’t me it was gonna be somebody else,” Angie wrote. “She was disrespectful to so many people all the time.”

So, in the end, it seems Wendy’s shady comments back then, actually worked in Angie’s favor.

Does anyone remember when radio personality Angie Martinez dated Tamir “Nokio” Ruffin from Dru Hill? Well, the two dated around the time Nokio was at the height of his career with the 90’s R&B group. The relationship initially came as quite a shock to fans, because many assumed they were complete opposites, partly due to their 8-year age difference, with Angie being the eldest of the two.

Angie is an outspoken rapper and radio personality who gained a reputation on New York’s Hot 97 and Nokio seemed like a quiet, laid-back type of guy. But, the two managed to make it work for the time being and appeared to be quite happy while they were together. In fact, they even have a son.

Angie’s & Nokio’s Son Back Then

Nokio Ruffin is the singer/producer’s second son. Needless to say, little Nokio – whose nickname is Niko – has always been adorable. Check out a throwback picture of him with his parents and his older brother, Jordan Ruffin, his father’s oldest son, above.

However, he’s not the little boy most fans remember anymore. He’s actually a teenager now and he looks quite different.

A few years ago, Angie Martinez shared a photo of Niko and Jordan with their uncle. In the photo, Niko is standing to the left of his uncle and he’s the spitting image of his parents. See Niko and his brother, Jordan, below…

Not only does Niko look like his parents, but he also inherited their love for music and their talents. Below is a throwback video Angie shared of Niko showing off his rap skills.

In addition to Jordan and Niko. Nokio had his daughter, Chloe Ruffin, with his ex-wife, Carmen Hayes-Ruffin. The two parted ways back in 2013. He also reportedly has a fourth child who was reportedly born in 2017.
