How Minneapolis Radio Quickly Reacted To Prince's Death

While stations across the country have responded to the passing of Prince
today, the biggest response has been in his hometown of Minneapolis. Three
stations have gone non-stop Prince today: AAA 89.3 The Current KCMP, Urban
AC 89.9 KMOJ, Hubbard Hot AC KS95 94.5 KSTP-FM, and Northern Lights Urban
Go 95.3 KZGO. Most of the other stations in the market have paid tribute in
some fashion and are sprinkling his songs throughout the day. From the time
TMZ first broke the news of his passing at 11:49am, it took eighteen
minutes for the first station to break in with the news and his music. KZGO
was first at 12:07 with iHeartMedia Classic Hits Kool 108 KQOL right behind
a minute later. Those stations were followed by 104.1 KZJK at 12:11, 102.9
WMNB at 12:15, 96.3 KTWN at 12:28, 101.3 KDWB at 12:35, KSTP-FM at 12:35,
105.1 WGVX at 12:57, and 97.1 WTCZ at 1:02 according to BDS monitoring of
the market. The Minneapolis market has paid tribute to Prince in multiple
ways online. KSTPs website features a giant banner at the top proclaiming
This Is What It Sounds Like When Doves Cry. Sports 100.3 KFXN has painted
its logo purple and inserted Princes logo. KMOJ issued a press release
bragging that they were the first station to play his songs on the air.
Classic Hip-Hop 105 The Vibe WGVX host Tony Fly has posted his on-air
tribute, and CHR 101.3 KDWB morning host Dave Ryan has been posting videos
from the growing gathering at Princes Paisley Park home.
