Description[]

Liberty City's home for hip-hop rounds out the original mixshows from Green Lantern and Mister Cee with two all new radio shows mixed by DJs Funkmaster Flex and Statik Selektah. The original Big Dog Pit Bull and Car Show Kingpin, Funkmaster Flex presents star-studded club bangers while the boom-bap ambassador, Statik Selektah presents a mix of truly exclusive original songs from the underground's elite.
The Lost and Damned website

The station is hosted by DJ Mister Cee and DJ Green Lantern in GTA IV, and by Funkmaster Flex and Statik Selektah in EFLC. It is based on New York City's hip-hop and R&B radio station, Hot 97. The playlists heavily emphasise the New York City hip-hop scene, with the vast majority of artists coming from that area, though some artists from the South and Midwest are also featured. A portion of the tracklist is exclusive to each stand-alone game, but downloading The Lost and Damned for GTA IV updates the station to include all songs. The Beat 102.7 Studios are located in Star Junction, Algonquin.

It is Armando Torres's, Brucie Kibbutz's, Dwayne Forge's, and Yusuf Amir's favorite radio station. It is also liked by Patrick McReary, Playboy X, Bobby Jefferson, and Malc.
