Rockstar has started pulling back the curtain on the GTA 6 radio dial, and the lineup is unlike anything the series has attempted before. Bad Bunny hosting a Latin station. Lana Del Rey voicing a country alter ego. Burna Boy curating an Afrobeats frequency. These are not rumors — they are confirmed by Rockstar's own announcements. This is the complete guide to every confirmed GTA 6 radio station, host, and music feature revealed so far.
Every Confirmed GTA 6 Radio Station
Rockstar has officially revealed six stations as of late 2026, with more promised ahead of the November 19, 2026 launch. Here is what we know about each one.
| Station | Genre | Host(s) | Status |
|---|---|---|---|
| Cocoteo FM | Modern Latin | Bad Bunny, RaiNao | Confirmed |
| AfroBank FM | African / Afrobeats | Burna Boy, Palms | Confirmed |
| Back Country Radio | Outlaw Country | Morgan Wallen, Lana Del Rey (as Delta Dawne) | Confirmed |
| Flash FM | Classic Pop / 80s | TBA | Confirmed (returning) |
| [Southern Hip-Hop Station] | Southern Hip-Hop | TBA | Confirmed, name TBA |
| [Latin Party Station] | Latin Party | El Martillo, La Gata | Confirmed, name TBA |
Station names and host assignments based on official Rockstar announcements through September 2026. Additional stations are expected to be revealed before launch.
Cocoteo FM — Bad Bunny Takes the Wheel
Bad Bunny co-hosting Cocoteo FM is the headline grab, and it earns it. The station covers modern Latin music — reggaeton, trap latino, and beyond — with Bad Bunny sharing duties with RaiNao. This is not a cameo. Rockstar has positioned him as an actual on-air personality for the station, not just an artist whose songs appear in the playlist.
The name itself is telling. "Cocoteo" is Puerto Rican slang for loose, laid-back socializing — exactly the energy a Vice City beach strip demands. It signals that Rockstar wants this station to feel culturally specific, not just a generic Latin hits compilation.
Back Country Radio — Lana Del Rey's Alter Ego
This is the most creatively ambitious casting in the lineup. Lana Del Rey does not simply appear as herself. She voices a character called Delta Dawne, an outlaw country host who presumably fits the gothic Americana persona Del Rey has built across albums like Norman F***ing Rockwell! and Did You Know That There's a Tunnel Under Ocean Blvd.
Morgan Wallen is also attached to Back Country Radio. His mainstream country audience is enormous, and pairing him with Del Rey's more cinematic edge makes for an unusual but coherent station identity. Rockstar is clearly aiming for tonal range within a single genre, not just a playlist of chart hits.
AfroBank FM — Burna Boy and the Global Sound
AfroBank FM is one of the most significant additions to any GTA radio dial. Afrobeats has gone from a regional genre to a global commercial force over the past decade, and Burna Boy — a Grammy-winning artist from Port Harcourt, Nigeria — is its biggest international ambassador. His involvement, alongside an artist listed as Palms, gives the station genuine credibility rather than a surface-level "world music" box-tick.
For a game set in a fictionalized Miami, featuring a station rooted in African music makes geographic sense. Miami's Afro-Caribbean cultural connections are deep, and AfroBank FM treats that seriously.
Flash FM Is Back
Flash FM returning is the series-history play. The station originated in GTA: Vice City (2002), spinning 80s pop hits. Its confirmed return to GTA 6 — which revisits Vice City — is Rockstar acknowledging the nostalgia weight that station carries. No host has been confirmed yet. The original Flash FM featured no on-air DJ personality in the traditional sense, so whether Rockstar introduces one this time is an open question.
The Latin Party Station — El Martillo & La Gata
A second Latin-leaning station has been confirmed, hosted by El Martillo and La Gata. Rockstar's own description: "el party que nunca se apaga" — the party that never ends. Where Cocoteo FM leans into Bad Bunny's modern trap-Latin sound, this station appears aimed at a more continuous, high-energy party atmosphere. Two distinct Latin stations in one game is a direct reflection of Vice City's real-world demographic makeup.
Where Does Cardi B Fit In?
Cardi B's track "Don't Chart" has been confirmed as part of GTA 6's in-game music. The song's title is a punchline aimed at streaming metrics culture, which fits the game's satirical DNA perfectly. She is not confirmed as a station host — her involvement is as a featured artist on the radio dial, most likely the Southern Hip-Hop station given the track's profile. That distinction matters: artist on a station versus host of a station are different roles.
The Miami Local Connection — Trick Daddy, Trina, and Vice City Authenticity
Here is the part most coverage has skipped. The confirmed Southern Hip-Hop station is widely expected to lean into Miami bass and Southern rap — a genre with deep roots in the city GTA 6 is fictionalizing. Trick Daddy and Trina, two artists synonymous with Miami's rap scene since the late 1990s, have been connected to the station in community discussion and early reporting.
If confirmed, their inclusion would be significant beyond nostalgia. Trick Daddy and Trina are not just Miami-associated artists — they are foundational to the specific sonic identity of the era and geography GTA 6 is recreating. This is Rockstar doing what it has always done best: not licensing famous names, but licensing the right names for world-building. The Vice City in GTA 6 should feel like Miami, and the radio is where that feeling is built or broken.
Note: Trick Daddy and Trina's roles have not been officially confirmed by Rockstar at time of publication. Treat any specific claim about their hosting duties as unverified until an official announcement.
Rockstar's New Music Feature — What's Actually Different This Time
Rockstar has described GTA 6's music system as featuring capabilities not present in any previous GTA or Red Dead Redemption title. Based on confirmed information, the headline addition is on-demand podcasts.
This is a meaningful structural change. Traditional GTA radio is passive — you tune in, you hear whatever is playing. Podcasts introduce an on-demand layer, letting players engage with spoken-word content on their own schedule within the game world. Think in-universe commentary, fictional news shows, or character-driven audio — all accessible outside the linear radio rotation.
The practical effect: the audio world of GTA 6 becomes denser and more player-controlled than any previous entry. You are not just surfing stations. You are navigating a media ecosystem.
How the Radio Lineup Reflects the Game's World
Step back and look at the confirmed stations as a set. You have:
- Two distinct Latin stations (Cocoteo FM, the party station) — reflecting Vice City's Latin American majority
- An Afrobeats station (AfroBank FM) — reflecting Miami's African diaspora connections
- An outlaw country station (Back Country Radio) — reflecting the game's confirmed rural Florida geography beyond the city
- A returning 80s pop station (Flash FM) — anchoring Vice City's legacy identity
- A Southern Hip-Hop station — reflecting the genre's grip on the American South
This is not random. Every confirmed station maps onto a real cultural layer of the game's setting. That is deliberate world-building through music licensing, and it is Rockstar at its most intentional.
What's Still Unknown
Rockstar has confirmed more stations are coming before launch. As of now, we do not have official confirmation on:
- Total station count (GTA V had 17 stations at launch)
- Full song lists for each station
- Confirmed hosts for Flash FM and the Southern Hip-Hop station
- Whether Trick Daddy and Trina are officially involved
- The full podcast lineup and format
- Whether any stations will feature real-time or dynamic content post-launch
Treat any specific song list or host name not traced back to a Rockstar announcement as unverified. The confirmed names above are solid. Everything else is noise until Rockstar says otherwise.
