Just terrible. Inexcusably bad…read more The CD player broke in my car, forcing me to listen to the radio and I was shocked at what's happened to radio, so I landed on WDET and it's no better. They used to play music, actually had some decent content until they hired somebody who knew better and it went to all talk and canned NPR content (translation: what you heard in the morning was the same thing you'd hear in the evening). Now they've gone back to music but it's the worst music you could imagine. And here's something I've learned about the music on public and college radio: it's all from a playlist, often a more rigid playlist than commercial stations adhere to, and there's a reason none of it is considered "popular." So I did some surfing, turns out the guy who knew better and ruined the station embezzled money, not enough money to make it worth doing but that's where your contriburions went. Now I play the Canadian public station, I can't say I listen as I usually keep it low, it's not much better but if they do something worthy of attention I turn it up.

They have some good music like Wagid's Wednesday night electronic music from 8pm - 10pm!! And some…read morelimited good news programs. What irks me is they are crying foul now that the Trump Administration is threatening to cut off their funding, but they NEVER have a good word to say about the administration!! NPR's reporting is so blatantly biased and one-sided!! They don't know what it means to deliver a balanced, wholesome newscast!! If I was President Trump I would cut off their funding too since I have NEVER heard them say a good word about him!! Are there things I don't like about the current administration, of course. But they are doing some good things, as well, but you will NEVER hear about it on this station or it's affiliates!! Time to grow up WDET and stop crying about federal funding cuts that you brought upon yourself!! If you would get back to fair and unbiased news reporting you wouldn't be in this situation!!

If I had to choose between FM 98 and HOT 102.7, it would be this one. I'm not sure why though,…read moreconsidering this radio station can't even keep a steady signal throughout the city. Seriously, in some parts of Detroit you can't listen to 102.7. That seems mighty strange to me. Either way, Russ Parr in the morning is pretty entertaining for the most part. His show is carried throughout various cities in the US, so it is not necessarily "Detroit" based in content. You want "interactive" Hip Hop and R&B, then this is a station you would enjoy. Although I must admit I don't understand why they call it "interactive".

We were listening to viva-radio.com at work and all of a sudden we heard a playist…read more "Is this WJLB?" we asked each other. It was awesome. A DJ had put up a playlist and called it the WJLB mix-tapes, and they were just dubs of Detroit's beloved WJLB. I have love for it.

Detroit radio is totally corporate owned and it's just top 40 and crap all rotated over and over…read moreagain. Sorry, but the only cities that actually play a little more real music these days are NYC, Chicago, and Miami. There may be a few others but I don't know them. WJLB just plays the same stuff over and over again. Soulja Boy this, Lil' Wayne that and ending with a lil Ne-Yo's newest single at night. It's just sad, really, I'm a music fiend and I'm from Chicago originally and I get around this nation and I can say that Detroit radio is real bad for a music fiend and WJLB is no exception! In fact what I hate the most is when they time release singles off of the SAME album like months apart just to spread the momentum for the album out. So corporate run! It's not about music at all, it's about album sales. And what's this Kid Cudi's "Day & Nite" being "new on the streets" in April - I had that song like back in December of 2008, lol. It's a shame. The same goes for Channel 955, they're probably the worst at this & "Hot" 102.7. In fact the only station I like that actually plays a variety of music and stays true to its genre is 89X!!!! Detroit, stand up I urge you. Stand up and demand better music. Either that, or use Pandora and download mp3's and make your own CDs.

Good music but it feels like they just repeat the same 10 or 15 songs over and over again. It gets…read moreold quick.

They do not want to hear the other side of the opioid crisis. I reached out to them twice to let…read morethem know we were rallying at Garden City Hospital in Garden City Michigan. I called the new station line and they told me to send an email, they were very interested. They never got back with me, and that really upset me because we are sticking up for what is right. me and many chronic pain patients worked very hard on this rally and wanted the media to come out to interview us. Chronic pain patients have been kicked to the curb due to the fake opioid crisis. We wanted to talk about our side, the side that's killing many chronic pain patients around the world due to suicide and neglect from doctors. You would think they would come out and talk to our side of the opioid crisis. I will never recommend this new station and will never watch them again! They are fake, they snow you, and they don't care about your issues. They only care about the bad side and didn't even write back. They could have said, well we are sorry or we're not going to make it or we're not really interested, but maybe next time. Nothing!!
