Yes I wish there was more variety. And I wish that stations would play what their market names say thay play. I am tired of pop stations playing rap songs and rap stations playing Urban AC songs and our AC station not playing anything worth hearing :roll:.
Another thing about Milwaukee Radio is that the contemporary AC station AND the only Pop station are both owned by Entercom so we have NO chance at all of getting any variety. Plus both stations pick up on songs 2 months later than the rest of the country and proceed to play them even MORE to make up for it.
Example: These are the top 10 most played songs on the "pop" station here. Notice all of these songs have been out for at least 3-4 months (Plays for the past week are first).
90 LIL JON/EASTSIDEBOYS/Get Low (f/Ying Yang Twins)
90 OUTKAST/Hey Ya
88 BABY BASH/Suga Suga (f/Frankie J)
86 BUBBA SPARXXX/Deliverance
80 YOUNGBLOODZ/Damn! (f/Lil Jon)
56 TRAPT/Headstrong
55 3 DOORS DOWN/Here Without You
52 SANTANA/Why Don't You & I
51 CHINGY/Holidae In (f/Ludacris/S. Dogg)
51 MANDY MOORE/Have A Little Faith In Me
The other AC is a 70s, 80s, 90s, current station so you have to sit through a bunch of stuff you don't want to hear to hear one current song. And our "Urban" station is a fraud because it doesn't play much rap music. I want a rap station
.
*sigh* I am sure you can tell now that I am very disappointed in Milwaukee radio, so I'll shut up now :wink:.
