LA April 2012 PPM

KABC had a 0.9 over the last three quarters. I guess they must take that as a sign that the changes made over there were wildly successful. Their ratings didn't drop.

Yeah but cume has steadily dropped as those transistor radio batteries die out up until some helpful and concerned neighbors request a wellness check on those fading households.
 
Urban AC KJLH is at an 1.3

Hip Hop/R&B Power 106 is at 4.0

CHR KIIS FM is back at #1

Rhythmic Oldies KHHT is at 2.9

Hip Hop Oldies KDAY 1.6
 
Wow! The hit music from April sure must have been fantastic! People just couldn't get enough of it as KIIS zooms back up to the top spot.

The KIIS FM playlist is made up of today's top selling artists such Usher, Adele, Nicki Minaj, Rihanna, Pitbull, Dev, Chris Brown, Justin Bieber, Drake and LMFAO. That's why KIIS FM is still thriving until this very day.

Sorry, I'm still a novice at understanding ratings, and up until now I never bothered to ask what all these terms mean. I get that "cume" refers to the number of unique listeners. So there are fewer unique listeners, but the rating didn't drop. How could that be, unless maybe the remaining unique listeners started listening more often...?

Longer. Their arthritis prohibits them from turning the dial.
 
Most likely, KIIS saw a spike from the onslaught of "boy bands"- groups like the Wanted, One Direction and other teen pop acts like Selena Gomez and Justin Bieber that became increasingly popular at CHR, and don't get played as much at KAMP. Also, there were two big rock hits from Fun and Gotye that KIIS was spinning more than KAMP- so a slight shift away from the rhythmic heavy direction of CHR seems to have benefited KIIS in this month (although its hard to make any concrete statements off of one month)

Well, KIIS did go very heavy in promoting their station event- Wango Tango- throughout the month of April so that could have spiked listening a notch too. I've also seen that the CHRs are embracing more Alternative Rock into the playlist. Just saw that KIIS added Tongue Tied by Grouplove, a song that still hasn't been fully embraced by Alternative yet.

Grouplove is top 5 at Alternative - I think they've embraced it
