East Los FM is a radio station featured in Grand Theft Auto V and Grand Theft Auto Online that plays Regional Mexican and Latin music.
Description[]
It is hosted by Don Cheto and Camilo Lara, a.k.a Instituto Mexicano del Sonido (Mexican Institute of Sound), and is mostly spoken in Mexican Spanish. It features a wide array of genres, including rock, hip-hop, ska, electronic, and various Latin styles such as banda, NorteƱo and cumbia. Until 2021, East Los FM served as the sole Spanish-language radio station for San Andreas.
While the station caters to the Mexican-American population of Los Santos, not all of the music featured is from Mexico. La Sonora Dinamita are actually Colombian, La Liga and Alika are Argentinean, La Vida Boheme are Venezuelan and Los Ćngeles Negros are Chilean-Mexican.
This is one of the preferred stations of the Los Santos Vagos, Varrios Los Aztecas, and the Marabunta Grande.
East Los FM is based in East Los Santos.

- It is one of two stations that didn't feature any new songs in the enhanced version, the other being Soulwax FM. Both stations are one long audio track that repeats, rather than mixes of songs, ads, and chatter.
- The station is most likely based on KBUE 105.5, a radio station that broadcasts throughout the Greater Los Angeles area that plays in a regional Mexican radio format and it also features Don Cheto as one of the hosts on the station.
