What's up with Star 94.1 radio station editing songs? Racist?

[Fuster_Cluck]

Am I the only one who notice this:

--Ludacris not in Fergie's song.

--Timberland deleted from the best part of JT's song Goes around.

--T.I. not in JT's song

--Mary J / Ludacris "Runaway love" which is a hit never on 94.1

--Shakira - Hips don't lie (no rap) (better without, but besides the point)

--Just noticed in Gwen Stefani's - the Great Escape they even deleted the Akon trademark cell door closing

There's more but that is all I can think of at this time.

Exactly. I quit listening to that station many moons ago. Later, QD.

That's why. Because they suck. But if you know they suck, why do you listen to it? The answer to your question, though, is that they play all the songs or remixes of songs that do NOT feature rappers. Later, QD.

yeah I hear ya.. but 95.5 The Beat also edits Akons song, and a few others as well... its BS if you ask me, but oh well

[trini_gsr]

wifey loves the station so i'm forced to listen to it a lot...it's not terrible though, radio in atl generally sucks anyhow...

anyways i think it's cuz their programming is to play pop music but not necessarily urban/rap. if you notice even the mixes for some r&b songs from beyonce and whoever else crosses over will be different...they'll have instrumentals cutting out the intros so you don't hear talking, etc.

also i notice that they'll play instrumentals for rap songs while the hosts are talking...but i never hear the songs.

Fuck radio. Satellite is definitely where it's at. Later, QD.

[Nittanys1]

thy have ALWAYS edited songs....

[HalfBaked]

Because they aren't a rap station genius.

They are a station that is played at places where people work and places where younger kids frequent. So they have to play music that will appeal to the people listening to it.

If you don't like it, don't listen lol.

But if they were going to edit it, why not not play it in the first place?

Instead you get to hear Daughtrey (sp?), Hinder, Nickelback, JT and Gwen Stefani 100 times a day, lol.

Does Cindy's voice annoy the hell out of any of you???

I listened to the radio for about 10 minutes today before playing an MP3 disc for the rest of the time.....

And that new Fergie song that is played on 94.1 is not hip hop?
