Hot 92 Jamz, Los Angeles (2002)

VERY-VERY RARE!!! Unused bumper sticker from the 2002, sheet measures approximately 19 cm by 7.5 cm. 
Front side: shaped; background: maroon chrome; Hot 92 Jamz logo.
Back side: Hot 92 Jamz Funkateers promo.


On August 9, 2001, KCMG Los Angeles changed its call letters to KHHT, re-branded as "Hot 92 Jamz" (and few years latter branded as "Hot 92.3"), and shifted to more of an urban AC format. However, KHHT was not a typical urban AC station; this station was one of the first urban AC's to play more old school/classic soul, the more mainstream-level R&B (barely-to-not playing neo-soul at all) and some rhythmic and Latino pop/R&B songs to cater to the Hispanic and Asian audiences that listen to R&B music in particular. In this way, KHHT's playlist structure was the inspiration for other urban AC markets in the western half of the U.S. such as sister stations in KISQ San Francisco, KSYU Albuquerque, and KHYL Sacramento.
