It played the hits that were already dominating parties and car stereos, so we didn’t have to think twice about keeping the energy up. For my show, that meant we could mix in the biggest pop tracks with hip-hop bangers without losing listeners, which made programming a no-brainer for ratings.

The station bridged a gap that felt natural in the mid-90s and early 2000s when artists like Missy Elliott, Aaliyah, and No Doubt were blurring lines between genres. From my chair at the request line, it was the perfect middle ground for listeners who wanted the edge of rap without losing the melody of pop, so you could hear both in one set without anyone switching the dial.
