I got a project for developing an android app and the deadline was so soon, I almost rejected the job but took it on a second thought. I was to do a radio streaming android app within 2 days. Looked harder, but managed. Ionic framework. Is Ionic framework among your preferred android frameworks?

Nope, but that's because none is. I like to keep my stuff free of useless dependencies.
For a radio streaming app, IONIC might be ok. It is based on Cordova and Angular, so if you are familiar with them, go for it and make a SPA. Depending on the requested features, React Native might be another candidate, but I can't really see it's use for a small app you should write in 2 days.

I suspect that Ionic will not be a sufficient choice for a streaming app as "streaming" seems like it might require lower level APIs than Ionic will expose.
You might explore Xamarin, which also has somewhat of a WYSIWYG GUI editor; however, apps must be written in C#. Otherwise there's NativeScript and React Native, which do expose lower level device APIs. And of course there's Android proper, which will be the most versatile platform.
