"Man, it is sooo dope!!! All they play is classic, mostly west coast, and they play new west shit nobody else would play!!!" and I got back for the summer and heard it, and was happy as hell that we had somethin like it. But I ended up being in L.A. for this entire summer, and I couldn't tell if I was listenin to KDay, Power 106, or 100.3 before they went R&B. They were playin a LOT more commercial shit than anything else, and even though they would play a few tracks that nobody else would, it wasn't really much.So damn, did it really get bought out? If so, I wouldn't be suprised at all. Yeah the 12 o clock mix plays diff shit, but usually it just feels like I am listenin to BET videos on radio.
KDAY was resurrected as an FM station in summer 2004, with a new campaign "Hip-Hop Today and Back in the Day." During its first few weeks, KDAY aired continuous music with no commercials and no disc jockeys. Shortly after, KDAY signed on some of Southern California's most popular DJs, including former West Coast female rapper rapper Yo-Yo, The Baka Boyz and Julio G, all of which previously were at KKBT. Today, as its campaign suggests, KDAY plays a variety of hip-hop and R&B from the 2000s,1990s, and 1980s.In April 2006, KDAY began moving away from a Urban leaning direction to an Rhythmic Contemporary Hit Radio| approach as the station refocuses its target audience towards African Americans. This was probably in response to long-time hip-hop/R&B station KKBT dropping hip hop from the format in favor of becoming a mixture of urban adult contemporary and urban talk radio, similar in format to KHHT and KJLH. KDAY's most direct competitor is probably KPWR, which seems to target predominantly Hispanic listeners. In addition, KDAY brought Steve Harvey on board on Memorial Day weekend 2006. Harvey had been released by KKBT the previous year; ironically, Tom Joyner, a friend of Harvey's, is now the morning host there.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/KDAY

When we saw that The Beat had changed it's format, he was saying that KDay was probably trying to take the place of The Beat and/or Power as they were on top in the 90's, and that they would have to change up the format in order to be #1.I guess it makes sense financially, but the hardcore fans they could have had aren't going to be down for it like that. But I know that the younger crowd (13-18) probably likes it better this way.
