Univision replaces radio’s 96.1 “The Beat’ with Recuerdos

“Hip-hop fans were in for a huge surprise at 6 p.m. Monday when radio station “The Beat” KVTQ FM 96.1 signed off for the last time with a Ludacris song and came back with a track from Vicente Fernandez.

The Vicente Fernandez track ushered in a new era at the Univision Radio property, as it permanently dropped the hip-hop format to adopt a Spanish-language variety format station, tagged Recuerdos.”

Please notes some (many) sites require registration. Many times it is free.
