iHeartMedia-Honolulu has flipped Rhythmic AC KHJZ (93.9 JAMZ) to Rhythmic CHR as “93.9 The Beat, Hawaii’s No. 1 Hit Music Station.” The new station launched with 4,000 commercial-free songs in a row and a recording of President Obama saying, “Are we ready to go? We got the cue. Alright, drop the Beat.” The all-new 93.9 The Beat will play popular songs from artists such as Rihanna, Drake, The Chainsmokers, Ariana Grande, DJ Khaled and more.

“Our goal with the launch of 93.9 The Beat is to bring the people of Hawaii a new and exciting hit music station with entertaining personalities, great music and a reflection of everyday life in Honolulu,” said Jamie Hyatt, SVP of Programming for iHeartMedia-Honolulu. “We’ve been asking people all over Hawaii for their help in building a new radio station and this is it.”

“We’re going to return the 93.9 FM frequency to its once dominant position as Hawaii’s number one hit radio station,” said Chuck Cotton, Market President for iHeartMedia-Honolulu. “We’re looking forward to introducing this station to everyone, so watch for The Beat on the Street!”
