Over the last 20 years, we have entertained you, the young, wild and free with fresh mix of urban hip music, entertainment and news. We pioneered a trendy Ugandan radio format that led to the rise of an urban home grown music genre and culture- ‘Luga flow’. Along the way, we popularized Ugandan hip hop artistes  with radio airplay, concerts and dance parties,

While we have truly enjoyed doing this, we believe that time has come for us to move on….. Therefore, with effect from 11th March, 2022, we will discontinue our official  broadcasts as Hot100 on the frequency 100.9 MHz.” the management stated.
