Petition Action

The campaign to get our music played on CapitalXtra continues in 2014

Additional Information

Since Global Radio rebranded Choice FM in October 2013, changed its name to CapitalXtra, which resulted in specialist programmes such as reggae, gospel, soca being dropped.

Our community for whom this licence was granted has struggled to hear the music that reflects their African and Caribbean culture on this commercial station. Music that was enshrined under the provisions of the original licence granted in 1990.

If you don’t want to have to search the airwaves to hear our music or listen to it at anti social times… then join the rally and sign this petition.

Let’s get Ofcom, the regulator that gives out radio licences to enforce the licences Global Radio currently holds in the public interest.

If you still want to hear our music: calypso, dancehall, gospel, reggae, soca etc… on a commercial music station then join us.

Have your say … Let’s show them WE care about our music and our community news.

Afterall, we have a VOICE and this is our CHOICE.
