Following the flip of Rhythmic AC “ 93.9 Jamz” KHJZ Honolulu to Rhythmic CHR “93.9 The Beat” KUBT over Labor Day Weekend, iHeartMedia has quickly resurrected the former format on 99.1 K256AS/KUBT-HD2.
“99.1 Jamz” replaces EDM “Evolution 99.1” on the translator and helps fill the void created by the departure of KHJZ and HHawaii Media’s Classic Hip-Hop “Hot 97.1” K246BR/KORL-HD2, which quietly flipped to 1980s Hits “Retro 97.1” in August.
Meanwhile at KUBT, former “102.7 The Bomb” KDDB morning hosts Sam The Man & Hawaiian Ryan have joined The Beat for mornings.
