Rockstar has confirmed six GTA 6 radio stations so far and named 18 songs for them, three per station. The hosts include Bad Bunny, Lana Del Rey and two members of Slayer. The lineup came out in a Rockstar Newswire post on October 8, 2026, six weeks before the game launches on November 19. Below you get each of the GTA 6 radio stations with every host, their in-game name and every confirmed song. You also get the trailer music that has no station yet and what changes if you stream the game with the radio on.
Rockstar calls it the “most diverse set of music in a GTA game ever”, as Shacknews reported. Still, it has not said how many GTA 6 radio stations the finished game will have. The announcement ended with “stay tuned for more info to come”, according to the press release. With six days left, nothing new has come from Rockstar. So this list covers what is confirmed, not what someone saw in a leak. (There are leaks. We are not going there.)
The six GTA 6 radio stations at a glance
So far the official GTA 6 radio lineup is six stations, 13 voices and 18 songs, as of November 13, 2026. You can play the intros and song previews for all six GTA 6 radio stations on Rockstar’s music page.
The first three cover Latin, country and African music.

|---|---|---|---|
| Cocoteo FM | Modern Latin | Bad Bunny (El Martillo), RaiNao (La Gata) | Bad Bunny “EoO”; Axel Rulay ft. Farruko & El Alfa “Si Es Trucho Es Trucho (Remix)”; Romeo Santos & El Chaval de la Bachata “Canalla” |
| Back Country Radio | Country | Morgan Wallen (MW), Lana Del Rey (Delta Dawne), Jeremy Dufrene (Mud Dog Mike) | David Allan Coe “Need a Little Time Off for Bad Behavior”; Loretta Lynn “Don’t Come Home A-Drinkin’ (With Lovin’ On Your Mind)”; Hank Williams, Jr. & Waylon Jennings “The Conversation” |

The other three GTA 6 radio stations play metal, pop and Southern rap.
| Station | Music | Hosts (in-game name) | Confirmed songs |
|---|---|---|---|
| The Chamber 106.6 | Metal | Kerry King (DJ Kerry), Tom Araya (DJ Tom) | Black Sabbath “I”; Pantera “I’m Broken”; Slayer “Raining Blood” |

Hosts and songs come from Rockstar’s announcement as quoted in the press release. Each station gets its own section below.
Cocoteo FM: Bad Bunny hosts the Latin station
Cocoteo FM is the modern Latin station, with Bad Bunny as El Martillo and RaiNao as La Gata. It plays bachata, merengue, dembow and reggaeton, per Shacknews.
The three named songs fit that brief neatly. “Canalla” by Romeo Santos and El Chaval de la Bachata covers bachata. The Axel Rulay remix with Farruko and El Alfa brings the dembow. Then there is “EoO”, a Bad Bunny song, on a station hosted by Bad Bunny.
It is the most honest piece of radio scheduling in the game. Most real DJs would get a memo about that.
Back Country Radio: Morgan Wallen, Lana Del Rey and a swamp weatherman
Back Country Radio plays what Rockstar calls “renegade country music”. It serves Grassrivers, Port Gellhorn and the rest of rural Leonida, the game’s version of Florida. The hosts are MW (Morgan Wallen) and Delta Dawne (Lana Del Rey). Mud Dog Mike, voiced by Jeremy Dufrene, is a swamp meteorologist who files his reports from an airboat.
The songs lean old and rowdy. David Allan Coe wants time off for bad behaviour. Loretta Lynn tells a husband not to come home drunk, and Hank Williams, Jr. and Waylon Jennings have “The Conversation”. None of the three would pass a corporate HR review, which is presumably the point.
Lana Del Rey’s host name sounds like the 1970s country hit “Delta Dawn” with one extra letter. We assume this is on purpose. We also assume the airboat has better reception than our office.
AfroBank FM: Burna Boy and Palms Trax
AfroBank FM is the African music station, hosted by Burna (Burna Boy) and Palmsy (Palms Trax, the DJ and producer). Rockstar sums it up as “the best in African music”.
Its three songs span a lot of ground for three songs. “Gye Wani” pairs Pat Thomas and Ebo Taylor, two veterans of Ghanaian highlife. “Joha” is by Nigerian singer Asake. “Shay’sana” comes from South African producer DJ Lag with Robot Boii and Kamo Mphela, and it is the newest of the three.
Three countries, three songs. So one station goes from highlife elders to current South African club music in three tracks, while a playlist algorithm would need a lot more songs to get there and would still squeeze a podcast ad in between.
The Chamber 106.6: two members of Slayer play metal
Of all the GTA 6 radio stations, The Chamber 106.6 is the loudest. DJ Kerry and DJ Tom run it, and those are Kerry King and Tom Araya of Slayer. Rockstar describes it as “timeless metal anthems”, with classic metal from the ’80s onward.
The songs are Black Sabbath’s “I”, Pantera’s “I’m Broken” and Slayer’s own “Raining Blood”. Two hosts, introducing their own band, right after Pantera.
The frequency is 106.6. Subtle it is not. Nobody at Rockstar tried, and nobody should have.
Flash FM comes back from Vice City with Robyn
Flash FM is the pop station, and among the GTA 6 radio stations it is the name Vice City players will know from 2002. Robyn and model Alex Consani host it this time. Both go by their own first names.
The three songs are Charli xcx’s “Good Ones”, MGMT’s “Electric Feel” and “Midnight Sun (Girls Trip)” by Zara Larsson and PinkPantheress. That last one is a 2026 track. So Flash FM is a revival with fresh stock rather than a museum with a transmitter. PinkPantheress also turns up on the game’s album, more on that below.
Dirty South Classics: Trick Daddy and Trina
Dirty South Classics plays regional rap and hip-hop classics, hosted by Trick (Trick Daddy) and Trina. Both are Miami rappers, which matters in a game set in a fictional Miami.
The songs are David Banner’s “Like A Pimp” with Lil’ Flip, JT Money’s “Who Dat” with Solé, and DJ Khaled’s “Born N Raised”. Khaled’s track features Rick Ross, Pitbull and, yes, Trick Daddy.
By now it is a pattern. Bad Bunny plays Bad Bunny, Slayer plays Slayer, and Trick Daddy plays a song with Trick Daddy on it. Call it vertical integration.
Songs from the GTA 6 trailers have no radio station yet
The trailers have used at least seven songs, but Rockstar has not put any of them on one of the GTA 6 radio stations yet. Here is what played where.
The first trailer came out in December 2023, scored with Tom Petty’s “Love Is a Long Road” from his 1989 album Full Moon Fever (Tom Petty’s official site). Billboard reported its streams jumped 8,421% afterwards, as American Songwriter relayed. A 34-year-old album track became a hit again because a trailer used it for 90 seconds.
The second trailer arrived on May 6, 2025, built around The Pointer Sisters’ 1986 song “Hot Together”, per NME. During a driving montage, the car radio also plays Wang Chung’s “Everybody Have Fun Tonight”, “Child Support” by Zenglen & 5 Etwal and Tammy Wynette’s “Talkin’ To Myself Again”.
That montage is the closest thing to a radio preview from before October. Our guess, and only a guess, is that Tammy Wynette ends up on Back Country Radio, somewhere between Loretta Lynn and an airboat weather report. We spent longer than we should have arguing about where Wang Chung goes. Flash FM was the majority vote. Anyway.
The launch trailer came out on October 15, 2026 with “Flower in a Hurricane” by Justice, featuring Tame Impala, SZA and King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard (Vice). Justice, the French electronic duo, also compose the game’s original score. That makes theirs the one trailer song made for the game rather than licensed for it.
GTA VI: The Album has 34 new songs, nine of them already out
Grand Theft Auto VI: The Album has 34 original tracks, comes out on November 19 with the game and was made with Atlantic Records (NBC Los Angeles; Rockstar). Nine of its songs are public so far.
Six came out with the announcement in September:
- Yung Lean, “That’s It” (feat. Future & Metro Boomin)
- Travis Scott, “RHYNO” (produced by Guy-Manuel de Homem-Christo)
- CA7RIEL & Paco Amoroso, PinkPantheress, Fred again.. & Etienne de Crécy, “Sexy Magic”
- Morgan Wallen, “Last Thing You Need”
- Rauw Alejandro, “Macacoa 2000”
- Keith Richards, “Bright Lights, Big City”
Then in October came Cardi B’s “Don’t Chart” and Fuerza Regida’s “Suzuki” (Complex), followed by the Justice song from the launch trailer. That leaves 25 tracks nobody has heard yet.
Rockstar has not said which GTA 6 radio stations, if any, will play the album songs. Morgan Wallen now hosts a station and has a single on the album, so the odds of MW playing MW look decent. The vertical integration continues.
The GTA 6 radio stations now follow you on foot
GTA 6 radio stations no longer stop when you get out of the car. Rockstar says the game adds headphones and earbuds connected to your in-game smartphone, so you can listen to the radio and podcasts on foot as well as in vehicles (press release).
The game also adds on-demand podcasts for the two main characters, Jason and Lucia. Rockstar calls this a first for the series. It has not named the shows or their hosts yet.
For players, this means a soundtrack while you walk. Streamers get something else: if the radio can play on foot, it can play on stream for hours. That brings us to the part nobody puts in a station guide.
GTA 6 radio stations on Twitch: the game’s music licence is not yours
Twitch’s own advice for licensed game music is to check the game’s licence agreement, and if in doubt, switch the music off. In a 2020 post on music claims, Twitch told streamers to search a game’s end user licence agreement (EULA, the terms you click through) for words like “stream”, “licensed” and “music”. If the rights are unclear, it suggests a game’s option to turn music off, muting game audio, or turning off VODs and Clips.
Every song on the GTA 6 radio stations is a real record with a real rights holder. Twitch scans VODs (past broadcasts saved on your channel) and clips for exactly that. When it finds a match, it mutes that part of the VOD and deletes the clips connected to it, says its copyrighted audio help page. Catch three or more cases in your VODs within 24 hours and you also get a warning.
Twitch’s music reporting page does say that in-game music gets different treatment from more flagrant uses under its deals with some rights holders. But rights holders can still report a VOD, and Twitch may then mute or remove it. “Different treatment” is not a licence. It is a softer queue.
The Rockstar announcements we read for this post do not mention a streamer mode that swaps out licensed songs. Maybe one shows up in the audio settings on launch day. Until you see it in the menu yourself, plan as if it does not exist.
Turn the radio down on stream and bring your own music
Treat the GTA 6 radio stations as a soundtrack for you, not for your VOD: radio down on stream, your own music underneath. Keep the radio on in your headphones, if your capture setup can split the audio.
The music you add yourself deserves the same suspicion as Bad Bunny on the car radio. Over the last 28 days, about one in four tracks run through our copyright checker came back with a rights holder’s claim (24.2%, down slightly from 26.9% in the 28 days before). That is Mubert’s own data, last 28 days, and it covers whatever people chose to upload, not GTA. We were surprised it was that high. Then we remembered how many people upload “royalty-free” tracks they found in a comment section.
For the “starting soon” screen and the gaps between missions, Render writes an original track of the exact length you ask for, from samples real artists uploaded and get paid for. What the licence covers depends on your plan, so read the terms for your use.
If launch week is also when you are chasing Twitch Affiliate, a muted VOD is a poor way to show off your best heist. And if you also upload highlights to YouTube, its Replace Song tool can swap out a claimed track after the fact. That is cleanup, though, not a plan.
A checklist for streaming GTA 6 with the radio stations on
- Play the GTA 6 radio station previews on Rockstar’s music page before launch.
- Read the GTA 6 licence agreement on day one and search it for “stream”, “music” and “licensed”.
- Check the in-game audio menu for any streamer or licensed-music option before you go live.
- Split game audio and music in OBS so you can mute the radio without muting gunfire.
- Prepare your own music for intros, breaks and menus, and check that its licence covers streaming.
- Turn on Twitch’s copyrighted audio warnings and watch your first VOD for muted sections.
- Decide whether to keep VODs and clips on during launch week or save them by hand.
Bad Bunny can play Bad Bunny on Bad Bunny’s radio show. On your VOD, that same song is someone else’s catalogue.
