I know both UBC and SFU have kickin' hip-hop programs, as well as a pretty wild bunch of other shit. Coop usually doesnt dissapoint either.

Oh, and no shitty Mcdonalds commercials either. I'm lovin' that.

I have caught either SFU's or UBC's Tuesday mornin hip - hop programs last year it was very good only time ive been able to get hip hop on the stereo at work without my boss thrown somthin at it :)

haha whatever,.... everywhere in the states that ive travelled has awesome radio stations... even RAVE music ones when i was in detroit

[Custard]

there was a time when the beat started looking like it had potential, cause they were gettign house dj's to play at the 6 o'clock traffic jam.

now im all about the obscure stations, like 91.3, 92.9 & 100.3 for rock and classic rock

this is why I hooked up a computer with internet to the store's PA system at my work (DQ), we got tired of Z and the beat, now we use Shoutcast internet radio stations, so much better :D

i even put the Digitally Imported Trance stream on, a few minutes before we close, best part is, my boss in his late 40s was like "hey, this is pretty good" :p

CiTR rocks in that they'll let ANYONE on. I once wrote a play while getting drunk in the stations break room and they let me read it on air 5 minutes later.

wtf is going on!?

it must be because z95 changed their music policy, but damn...this is horrible!
all i usually listen to now at work is rock 101...seems to be the only station i dont have to change after every 1 or 2 songs.

rock 101 is what you should have been listening to in the first place....

I honestly feel that they are influenced by American and the grand old MTV.

TRL play - Avril
-Ryan C
-Ashlee Simpson
-Maroon 5
-Jessica
-Hilary Duff

They are honestly trying to play what's hot, and in the US those artists are all rocking the charts. Also, people vote those songs onto the top seven at seven so clearly there are listeners who appreciate it.

If you've ever heard a NY radio station or watched TRL you'd get the change, they are trying to be hip to the now. I get it. Dont love it...but dont HATE it...they want to play the hits...not just hip hop, and those ARE the hit songs right now.

If you have cable radio, check out 104.5. If not, check out www.radiocfml.com

That's BCIT's radio station. It's not top 40. It's not hip hop (though we do have some stuff in there...k-os, sweatshop union). It's called Triple A...so we'll play anything from Jack Johnson, bob marley, sam roberts, muse, the music, metric, etc...

Check it out.

[Grapes]

As far as 101.9fm goes..

Thursdays from 3-5 = Rhymes and Reasons
Fridays from 12-2 = These are the Breaks

Both these shows make anything (I mean ANYTHING) the beat has ever done look like Mr. fucking Rogers.

[cutienikki]

everyone says the beat is turning into z95 and z95 is turning into 103.5 :s

[Ms.Chop]

i can deal w/ maroon 5..


but i wanna murder them for having that radio guy that sounds so fucking american.. and thinks he's funny..

and for playing stupid simple plan.. and stupid fuckign avril fuckign lavigne.. i wanna wake up listening to sumthing GOOD.. not sum fucking snobby lil cunt.
