I know most of you either never heard of, or don’t care about former Wendy Williams sidekick, radio jock Charlamagne, who was unceremoniously fired from his Philadelphia radio gig yesterday after being fired from WBLS last year.

But rumors are swirling that Charlamagne, who calls himself “the god,” got the axe because of the god MC, Jay Z, who might have felt some kind of way about Charlamagne’s exclusive interview last week with former Roc rapper Beanie Sigel who publicly aired his grievances with Jigga on that diss track that flooded the Internets on Friday.

In an interview with XXL magazine yesterday after tweeting his firing on Twitter.com, Charlamagne said:

“…right after the show was over, the program director came in and was like, “Yo, can we talk to you.” You know how it goes down; they tell you, “Oh, we love you, we love everything you’ve done for the company but we just moving in a different direction.” No reasoning [behind it], but it’s always like that though. I will never know the real reason, but I can speculate…

Jay Z is alleged to be a high ranking member of the Illuminati, a secret organization whose powerful members calls all the shots in the music industry. Jay swiftly went into damage mode after Beanie’s diss track dropped and Charlamagne’s interview with Beanie Sigel aired on Friday.

XXLMag.com: You think it had something to do with the Beanie Sigel interview last week?

Charlamagne: I don’t know, that’s what I’m hearing but I don’t know how true that is. I don’t see why that woulda been an issue. I would hope that the powers that be, like Jay-Z, wouldn’t be that petty. But you never know.

XXLMag.com: This whole thing is crazy. I’m sure your ratings went through the roof after that Beanie interview.

Charlamagne: Yeah, my numbers were great. I’ve never had any disciplinary action, never been suspended, never been written up, never had any verbal warnings… As controversial as they say I am, I’m like a model employee. Any program director that’s worked with me will tell you that but that’s the way it goes in radio.

That’s saying a lot when a radio station fires your ass right after your ratings goes through the roof.
