The Beat – 95.5 FM

Yeah this station has been off air for about six years :-(but since there’s a Unilocal page and I saw there were only 2 reviews from two stuck up, self important douche bags, I will write a review salvaging the reputation of this iconic Atlanta radio station.
I grew up with 95.5 the beat. Always had the latest, hottest music. The DJs were hilarious and hip. It was a great station. Big part of my childhood and adolescence. Memories of when Outkast were still together, Ludacris was still a great rapper and Atlanta still had its own unique qualities. Too bad 95.5 is now some trash talk radio channel with the likes of Hannity and Limbaugh.

95.5 The Beat is Atlanta’s #1 station for the crunkest hip-​hop I have ever heard shotties. Not only do they play blazing hip-​hop jams 24 – 7, but they also make sure to lay down some ill R&B tracks whenever it is clever. Ah snaps! I just heard some fresh tracks they laid down off of J. Tim’s new album on 95.5, and I thought I was gonna crash my dope ride because I was gettin’ so off the hook crazy with my dance moves.
Just in case you don’t get the chance to catch a jam you have been wanting to hear forever, don’t worry my peeps, I guarantee they will play that same song at least 20 more times that day. Talk about one bomb diggity idea.
95.5 The Beat is basically just a radio station that puts their play-​list on repeat. They also seem to hire nothing but DJs who cover topics like: What is going on in the life of Paris Hilton?
If you listen to the radio station for more than 30 minutes, I can almost guarantee that half of your brain will rot away.

Screw «the beat.» I hate them. unless you are 14 there is no point in listening. I remember when the station started back in 1999 and had a slightly more diverse format. I remember also remember when they beat «Lady Marmalade» to death for about two years, and I think now they are still beating to death Usher «Yeah» and that Kanye West gold digger song… enough is enough. At least I don’t think they say «the beeyaat» anymore.
