Clear channel ruined radio
FYI they rebranded into iHeartRadio.
Radio must have been one of the first modern things to go through the "enshitification" process.
Yep. Endless focus groups to rate which songs to play. Extremely small playlists and the hosts are so annoying you want to punch them. Thank god for the internet and endless amounts of music, I never need to listen to radio anymore.
There used to be good stations, with hosts choosing the music they want to play and having a good taste -- even better if it's different from mine so I can hear something new.
All gone now...
Nothing but maroon 5 and imagine dragons from here on out.
Of course they did. They took over everything in Canada too.
sucks that they own pretty much every radio station. they’re now creeping into podcasts as well
We used to just leave a vehicle parked somewhere while we made dinner or did other stuff and let the radio play!
People sometimes would stop by and realize, after a bit of convo, they were hearing something and be baffled as to what the hell we were listening too.
My friends and I would do the same thing. When we got tired of playing, but wanted to keep listening to the music or talk shows.
I had a software that ripped gta music and ads and shuffled them so you can burn a cd to play in your car with the same in game radio.
Loved cruising around with k-rose on from San Andreas. The ads kill me every time.
I wonder how long it would take for a passenger in the car to figure out it's not real radio...
I need it
Radio X > everything else
Gta3s k-jah was the peak for me (but it was nasty in San Andreas). I did a lot of nsx as well
The Glory hole ads were amusing everytime i heard it
Vice city's sound track was my soundtrack to life for a long while. It really made me appreciate 80s music.
Also chatterbox from gta3 was so good. I loved Laslow.
Speak English, you limey morons!
I will now tear this desk in two half desks!
"Don't you think--" "No I don't! Never!"

The talk radio is for sure. Dr. Ray De Angelo Harris aka JB Smoove.
Hit me with the stick!
My name's Lazlow and you're on Chatterbox! Thanks for calling in.

I'm a first time caller. I wanted to say something about these videogames, they are warping our kids minds. My sons dog, Bugle, got hit by a truck, and he says mommy, mommy, where's the reset button?
Useless. Talentless. Asshole. Haha I love those guys. -Maurice Chavez
I was disappointed when I realised he wasn't hosting Gardening with Maurice.
Radio Espantoso introduced me to a whole genre I never knew existed
Have also been guilty of leaving the car parked and listening to the radio. Download the files from YouTube while they're hot :)
They're on yt? Yeah, I might go for that.
They are. I wish someone would put together new videos with remastered audio though.
Love Fist!
If we die, I'm gonna get peshed.
Vice City made me appreciate 80s music at a young age. I really appreciate the thought that went into selecting abd producing the sound track. I have the full OST release on CD - not sure if it is a bootleg or not, I don't really care.
Los Santos Rock from GTAV with Kenny "Danger Zone" Loggins as the DJ is incredible.
I never appreciated Saturday Nights Alright for Fighting until i I had it as the soundtrack to a high speed highway gunfight
GTA radio is literally just songs that used to play on the RL radio 😂
The announcers and commercials are better in GTA, thus better than IRL
Well, the deejays were people that were already famous for other things, so yeah, slight advantage there 😅
Burnout: Paradise FTW! DJ Atomika is my boy.
I absolutely love that JunkieXL cut of "Cities In Dust". Damn EA and their weird handful of songs that can't be legimiately acquired.
Yes! I love that song, a great race song. Time to get a Boost x5!

If you have Spotify (correction, doesn't have Cities in Dust but does have other songs 🤷): https://open.spotify.com/playlist/5uWytVYKxhq1zyQpCp8m4E?si=68dTWxbUTLKuMnJeYqHhpQ
Burnout paradise not having local multiplayer hurt 15 years later...or maybe less but I'm not looking it up
Great game but I wish I could race my siblings and partner.
I feel ya. The kids and I would take turns. The only game where that actually worked.
Fernando Martinez never fails to make me laugh
Fernando's New Beginnings?
He's not a pimp he's a miracle worker
Cinco cinco cinco. Nuevo dos, nuevo dos!
Funnily enough, I recently found out the drummer in my band's Dad had a song in Vice City!
Whoa! That's some serious dad points right there.
What's even funnier is I was looking through my dad's record collection and he has a single from my drummers dad's band! Small world
I would just drive around busting three wheel around the corners with my homies in the drop top just listening to the radio. That was more fun than the missions.
If you use Pandora music you can enter Vice City as a radio station to play on it. You don’t get the talking stuff but it does play all the songs (and related 80s music).
VROCK and RADIO LOS SANTOS. Legendary stations.
Gardening with Maurice was nice. Actually all the shows on WCTR.
Can't believe I had to go this low to find WCTR.
Fallout 3 and 4 are my jams.
nothing beats radio new vegas
I would nominate radio Pro Skater as a contender
I can't change your mind, I agree right down to the "vice city was the best one," you're right.
It made me nostalgic for so many classics of the 70s/80s that I hadn't heard before playing it.
Loved Vice City. The music was fire in that game.
Fucks talking about real estate and unrealistic expectations are my real radio. Awful compared to VC
(enhale)
Louisiana woman, Mississippi man We'll get together every time we can The Mississippi River can't keep us apart There's too much love in this Mississippi heart Too much love in this Louisiana heart
K-Rose!
It's not a radio, it's a playlist. We have those everywhere.
It's not just the music, also the talk radio, the moderators, the news, the ads,...

No, I will not change your mind.
I see no lies. GTA always had such an iconic radio.
GTA IV wktt always cracks me up. Definitely helps Patrice O'Neal and fez whatley voiced some of the skits.
4's still my fave but need to go back and play San Andreas and vice city today to know for sure. Anyone played them recently? They hold up?
Radio Broker and Electro-Choc were ridiculously influential on my later music preferences.
Oglock, how are you?
Literally had GTA radio playing on a trip
Chakra Attack!
San Andreas for me !!!! Played hardcore during covid lockdown. Boy because i want 1 millions point to be the King of San Andreas
Jesus luckilly the choppper have radio unlike previous gta game !!!!
Yeas wanna how many hour of blowing up airplane to get the millluon pts jesus
Yea GTA radio is better than actual radio
You thought that man was the don, but he gave you the FEVER
I still listen to KDST on regular basis.
None of that rap crap
I have at least listened to it more
Where's my vinewood boulevard radio gang at?
All my ex’s live in Texas
Blu Arc best Reggae show there is...
Radio Off. I like to hear the screaming
SF-UR, K-DST (GTA SA), SoulwaxFM and LSUR (GTA 5) will always be my go to 👌
I can't. Actual radio won't stop playing God damn ed Sherron.
I'm so out of touch with modern music that I know what he looks like, from memes and stuff, but I couldn't tell you any of his songs.
Yes you can. It's impossible to escape them.
Not to brag or anything, but I got the 1111th upvote.
Made my day :)
Nice.
K-Jah!
