what happened to 105.1 the x

105.1 The X in Kansas City was rebranded in September 2023. The station’s rock/alternative format was replaced by Power 105.1 , a hip-hop and R&B station.

What changed

• Before: KCJK-FM was known as 105.1 The X and carried a rock/alternative format.

• After: Cumulus launched Power 105.1 on that signal, with hip-hop and R&B programming.

If you meant a different 105.1

There are multiple stations branded “105.1 The X” or similar in different markets, so if you meant a different city, I can help narrow it down. For example, one live listing still shows KCJK The X 105.1 FM as an online stream, which suggests some directories may not be fully updated.

If you want, I can also check whether 105.1 The X in your area is still on air, moved formats, or changed call letters.
