“His Top 40 DJ fame is definitely the more significant of his career accomplishments.”
No.
Shaggy is universally known. A classic icon.
AT40? I, and many here, remember it from when we were young.
Everyone from geezers to babies knows Shaggy.
Yes, I know that .Shaggy is known ..but Kasem was already famous before that. Top 40 countdown was the king of all countdown shows .it created a genre of music shows .and when Frank Caliendo spoofs Kasem, it’s countdown, not Shaggy.
