Rockstar has confirmed 6 GTA 6 radio stations so far: Cocoteo FM, Back Country Radio, AfroBank FM, The Chamber 106.6, Flash FM and Dirty South Classics. They go live with the game on November 19, 2026, and this time you can listen on foot through earbuds connected to Jason’s and Lucia’s phones, plus the series’ first on-demand podcasts.

Below: every host, the 18 songs in Rockstar’s station previews, the reported celebrity DJs and how the new radio works. We’ll add the full list after launch.

What radio stations are in GTA 6?

Rockstar named six stations in its October 8 Newswire post and says the full lineup runs from classic rock to talk radio, so more are coming.

The station names, sounds and on-air hosts come from Rockstar. The real names were reported by Stereogum, Complex, Rolling Stone and Billboard, not by Rockstar’s own pages (more on that below).

Cocoteo FM

  • Genre: modern Latin, from bachata and merengue to dembow and reggaeton.
  • Hosts: El Martillo and La Gata. Reported to be Bad Bunny and singer RaiNao.
  • Songs in Rockstar’s preview: “EoO” by Bad Bunny, “Si Es Trucho Es Trucho (Remix)” by Axel Rulay ft. Farruko & El Alfa, and “Canalla” by Romeo Santos & El Chaval de la Bachata.
  • What it’s like: Leonida’s Latin party station, with the tagline “el party que nunca se apaga” (the party that never shuts off). If the reports are right, Bad Bunny gets to play his own song.

Back Country Radio

  • Genre: renegade country, beamed out to the Grassrivers, Port Gellhorn and beyond.
  • Hosts: MW and Delta Dawne, reported to be Morgan Wallen and Lana Del Rey. Rockstar also names Mud Dog Mike, the station’s roving reporter and swamp weatherman, who calls in from his Grassrivers airboat. Outlets report he’s voiced by Jeremy Dufrene, Lana Del Rey’s husband.
  • Songs in Rockstar’s preview: “Need a Little Time Off for Bad Behavior” by David Allan Coe, “Don’t Come Home A-Drinkin’ (With Lovin’ On Your Mind)” by Loretta Lynn, and “The Conversation” by Hank Williams Jr. & Waylon Jennings.
  • What it’s like: old-school outlaw country for swamp roads. Rockstar’s music page calls it airboat-ready.

AfroBank FM

  • Genre: African music, from 20th-century classics and lesser-known gems to newer sounds like amapiano and 3-step.
  • Hosts: Burna and Palmsy. Reported to be Burna Boy and DJ Palms Trax.
  • Songs in Rockstar’s preview: “Joha” by Asake, “Gye Wani” by Pat Thomas ft. Ebo Taylor, and “Shay’sana” by DJ Lag & Robot Boii ft. Kamo Mphela.
  • What it’s like: the widest time span of the six. Old classics sit right next to current dance music, and the hosts’ pitch is all about turning up the gbedu (Nigerian slang for a groove, named after a Yoruba drum).

The Chamber 106.6

  • Genre: metal, covering several decades of it.
  • Hosts: DJ Kerry and DJ Tom. Reported to be Kerry King and Tom Araya of Slayer.
  • Songs in Rockstar’s preview: “I” by Black Sabbath, “I’m Broken” by Pantera, and “Raining Blood” by Slayer.
  • What it’s like: Rockstar says metal has landed in Leonida and invites you into the pit. It’s our early pick for the first late-night highway drive.

Flash FM

  • Genre: pop.
  • Hosts: Robyn and Alex. Reported to be pop singer Robyn and model Alex Consani.
  • Songs in Rockstar’s preview: “Good Ones” by Charli xcx, “Electric Feel” by MGMT, and “Midnight Sun (Girls Trip)” by Zara Larsson & PinkPantheress.
  • What it’s like: the only returning station so far. Rockstar calls it a Vice City institution, and it was the pop station in GTA Vice City back in 2002.

Dirty South Classics

  • Genre: regional rap and hip-hop classics.
  • Hosts: Trick and Trina. Reported to be Trick Daddy and Trina.
  • Songs in Rockstar’s preview: “Like A Pimp” by David Banner ft. Lil’ Flip, “Who Dat” by JT Money ft. Solé, and “Born N Raised” by DJ Khaled ft. Trick Daddy, Rick Ross & Pitbull.
  • What it’s like: Southern hospitality from the beach to the block, as Rockstar puts it. If the reports are right, Trick Daddy is both a host and a featured artist on “Born N Raised.”

Who are the celebrity hosts on GTA 6’s radio?

Rockstar’s Newswire post and music page credit the on-air names only. The real names in our table were reported on October 8, the day of the reveal. Stereogum and Complex listed all six pairs plus Jeremy Dufrene as Mud Dog Mike, and Rolling Stone and Billboard led their stories with Bad Bunny and Lana Del Rey.

Most on-air names are the reported hosts’ first names or initials, which is a strong hint. We’ll call them confirmed when the game’s credits say so.

How does the radio work in GTA 6?

Rockstar’s October 8 post confirms three things:

  • Radio on foot: radio and podcasts play in vehicles and on foot, through newly added headphones and earbuds connected to Jason’s and Lucia’s smartphones.
  • Podcasts: for the first time in the series, there’s a set of on-demand podcasts to listen to beyond Leonida’s regular radio.
  • More stations: Rockstar calls it the biggest and widest-ranging radio selection yet, with stations from classic rock to talk radio.

Rockstar hasn’t named the podcasts, the classic rock station or the talk station yet. It also hasn’t said how many stations there are in total.

The music outside the radio is changing too. Justice wrote an adaptive score that shifts with the way you play through Jason and Lucia’s story, per Rockstar’s October 29 post.

Our take: until now, GTA radio mostly lived in your car. With earbuds, the station you like can follow you on foot.

What songs are confirmed for GTA 6 so far?

Two lists are official. The first is the 18 radio songs above. Rockstar names them in the track list of each station preview on its music page, and each preview runs about two minutes.

The second is GTA VI: The Album, 34 original tracks made with Atlantic Records. These are the singles on Rockstar’s music page as of November 9, 2026:

SongArtist
That’s It (feat. Future & Metro Boomin)Yung Lean

Rockstar hasn’t said which stations will play the album’s original songs. Two details from Rockstar’s posts: “RHYNO” was produced by Daft Punk’s Guy-Manuel de Homem-Christo, and “Flower in a Hurricane” is the song from the October 15 launch trailer.

When do the GTA 6 album and Justice score come out?

Which classic GTA stations does GTA 6’s radio echo?

  • Flash FM (Vice City, 2002): Vice City’s pop station, hosted by DJ Toni, with ’80s hits like “Billie Jean,” “Self Control” and “Owner of a Lonely Heart.” It came back in Vice City Stories (2006) with Toni and co-host Teri. GTA 6 is the first new game to carry it since then.
  • V-Rock (Vice City, 2002): Vice City’s heavy metal and hard rock station, hosted by Lazlow. The Chamber 106.6 is the first metal station named for GTA 6.
  • Rebel Radio (GTA V, 2013): outlaw country hosted by Jesco White, with Waylon Jennings on the playlist. Waylon turns up again in Back Country Radio’s preview. San Andreas (2004) had its own country station, K-Rose.
  • West Coast Classics (GTA V): DJ Pooh’s West Coast rap station. Dirty South Classics brings the same “classics” idea to the South.
  • Famous hosts: GTA V put Kenny Loggins on Los Santos Rock Radio, Flying Lotus on FlyLo FM and Cara Delevingne on Non-Stop-Pop FM. Every GTA 6 station named so far has a pair of hosts.

Will Rockstar reveal more GTA 6 radio stations?

Yes, at least in general terms. Rockstar’s radio post says more info is coming, and its music page promises stations from classic rock to talk radio, so at least two more kinds of station exist. As of November 9, 2026, the Newswire had no new radio post since October 8.

We’ll update this page on November 19 and 20 with the full station list. We’ll build it only from Rockstar’s own material and reputable in-game reports, never from leaked lists.

Next step: the GTA 6 pre-load needs up to 212 GB, so check our GTA 6 storage guide before launch night. Then sort the menu with our GTA 6 launch-day snacks plan.
