The soundscape of GTA 6, hitting shelves on November 19, continues to take shape. Rockstar Games announced that the in-game radios, a staple of the series, have this time been handed over to famous names. Each channel has a distinct music genre and the stars steering it.
A station-by-station music map
Six channels were introduced in the official announcement. The names involved and each channel's identity are as follows:
- Cocoteo FM – In the hands of RaiNao and Bad Bunny, featuring contemporary Latin sounds.
- AfroBank FM – A repertoire of African artists curated by Palms Trax and Burna Boy.
- Chamber 106.6 – Classics of metal history; behind the channel are two Slayer legends, Kerry King and Tom Araya.
- Flash FM – Today's pop hits, run by fashion icon Alex Consani and pop star Robyn.
- Dirty South Classics – Southern hip-hop tracks in collaboration with Trina and Trick Daddy.
- Back Country Radio – Country tones; the lineup includes Morgan Wallen, Lana Del Rey and Lana's husband Jeremy Dufrene.

RaiNao's words: "Captivating"
RaiNao, one of the faces of Cocoteo FM, told Pitchfork about her excitement:
"Cocoteo captures our soul, our street language, our pride, our traditions and all our craziness. Bringing my voice to life in GTA 6 and representing our culture and music on this scale is an indescribable feeling. I wasn't a gaming fanatic, but GTA was always a favorite. Cruising around blasting music in a car I was driving was a whole different experience — now being part of that world is captivating."
And this isn't an isolated announcement. In September, the studio also released the list of 34 original tracks set to appear in the game, with works by Travis Scott, Yung Lean and PinkPantheress standing out.
