105.9 KISS FM is Detroit's go-to station for R&B, hip-hop, and urban contemporary music — a format built for a city with one of the deepest music legacies in America. Detroit gave the world Motown, birthed the techno movement, and produced artists who shaped hip-hop and R&B across multiple generations. KISS FM carries that musical identity forward with a playlist tuned to today's Detroit listener.
The station's format centers on current hip-hop, chart-topping R&B, and the urban contemporary records that fill Metro Detroit's playlists. You'll hear mainstream rap alongside smooth R&B cuts, with programming that reflects the tastes of the city rather than settling for a generic national playlist. Local content, community programming, and artist spotlights keep the station connected to Detroit's music scene.
The core audience is Detroit's young adult community — listeners who grew up in a city that takes music seriously and expect their local station to deliver accordingly. Whether it's the morning commute through Midtown, an afternoon break, or a late-night session, 105.9 KISS FM provides the sound that fits Detroit's tempo.
Available as a 24/7 live stream online, KISS FM extends Detroit's sound beyond the broadcast area. No app or account required — tune in and listen to the station that's been Detroit's R&B and hip-hop home.
