THE PULSE: INSIDE THE SHOW
Born from the vibrant streets and the ever-evolving sound of the city, Urban Chart Hits is your definitive guide to what is happening in Urban Music. We don't just play the top 20; we dive into the stories behind the artists, the industry shifts, and the beats that move the culture.
Launched in 2006 and possibly the longest running Australian networked radio show, Urban Chart Hits celebrated its 1000th edition in early 2025 and is still going strong.
Urban Chart Hits was initially presented by "Wolfie" and was heard on some independent commercial stations in Queensland and NSW before getting picked up what is now SCA. It was aired on all 65 Sea, Star and Hot FM hit music stations nationally on a Sunday night from 10pm. Later the Grant Broadcasters picked it up and then in 2019, the brand, show and website were purchased by Costello Investment Holdings and continued in its current format until now.
Urban Chart Hits is currently presented by Brett Costello, and heard on great stations such as the Flow FM network (23 stations across SA, Vic, NSW, NT), Oz Urban Radio 87.8fm Perth, Darwin FM, Rhythm FM Cairns 88.0FM, Tune1.com.au, 89.7fm in Perth's Northern Suburbs, 94.1fm Cherbourg Radio (QLD), TEABBA; broadcasting into 29 remote communities across the Top End (NT), as well as a number of narrowcast, indigenous and community stations across Australia, New Zealand and Singapore (and even Germany!).
