AM 1250 KKFX. Night beats was the jam in the mid 80’s. The. I want to say NastyNes went to KCMU and had a rap show there as well.

Before Night Beats it was Fresh Tracks[/i] Sunday nights on 1250 KKFX. Also, 1420 KRIZ played a lot of hip hop music in the mid to late 1980s. Lots of good radio show listening memories as a pre teen and teen...

It’s a problem across the entire state. The same stages that are now struggling once introduced the likes of Pearl Jam. Ben Haggerty became Macklemore on Seattle’s smaller stages.
