It has been one of the top pioneer promoters of the Uganda music genre called Luga Flow.
Hot 100 FM, has been a sister radio station to Radio Simba, a Lugada speaking station based in Bukoto too.
Hot 100 started way back in but was officially launched in 2007 serving as an urban youth station mostly playing Hip Hop and RnB music.
During its operation, the station birthed talented presenters like Bryan McKenzie, Byg Kahuna, Deejay Crim, DJ Gero, Rashidah, Princess Karma, Humphrey Wampula and many others.
Two years back the station had rebranded to a comedy and more stations but things didn’t work out well.
The management has announced the closure of the station through an official letter.
“We pioneered a trendy Ugandan radio format that led to the rise of an urban home, grown genre and culture ‘Luga Flow’. Along the way we popularized Ugandan hip-hop artistes with radio airplay, concerts and dance parties,”
“While we have truly enjoyed doing this, we believe time has now come for us to move on and perhaps continue to serve you in different ways using newer and more efficient platforms. Platforms that may increase engagement and value,” part of the letter reads.
