WXFX-HD3/Montgomery, AL Switches To Classic Hip-Hop As 95.1 The Vibe
CUMULUS MEDIA has launched Classic Hip-Hop WXFX-HD3 (95.1 THE VIBE)/MONTGOMERY, AL, replacing the simulcast of now-defunct Conservative Talk WLWI (1440 AM) on the HD3 channel of Rock-formatted WXFX (95.1).
VP/Market Mgr. PAULA DIVELLO said, “We are excited to offer unique, new programming on HD that airs chart-topping Classic Hip-Hop and R&B. We believe the listeners in MONTGOMERY and CENTRAL ALABAMA will enjoy hearing all their old favorites — and the station will be a benefit to both the community and our advertisers.
“Not only will listeners love the sound and feel of THE VIBE, but advertisers will find a new home and great opportunities to connect to audiences.”
PD PAUL HORTON added, “THE VIBE will attract listeners in the RIVER REGION who grew up with all the Classic Hip-Hop and R&B favorites. It’s a blast from the past that brings nostalgia for the good old days back to Gen Xers and Millennials. And will surely become a favorite radio spot for every generation.”
The MONTGOMERY market now has two Classic Hip-Hop stations, with the other being BLUEWATER BROADCASTING’s translator W263BX, WQKS-HD2. (YO 100.5).
