Radio Afrodicia is a weekly on-air radio program dedicated to promoting African and African-influenced music. For close to twenty years, Radio Afrodicia has been the most authoritative showcase of African music there is in Los Angeles.
Our target audience ascends race, ethnicity, age and region. Radio Afrodicia is a diverse program not only musically by offering the range of music that spans the African Diaspora (including the Africa continent, the Caribbean, Europe, and the U.S.), but also by having a range of guests on the show who bring with them different worldviews and different cultural experiences.
Our inclusion of music from across the African Diaspora makes us unique. The music is a blend of: Afro-beat, Afro-Pop, Bachata, Champeta Criolla, Soukous, Hi Life, Jazz, Merengue, Algerian, Ethiopian, Ghananian, Nigerian, South African, Sudanese, and Tunisian hip hop, Palos, Rumba (Congolese and Cuban), Salsa (African and Latin American), Samba, and Soca.
Another factor that makes us different from other programs is our in-depth coverage of the African Cup of Nations. Every two years, we cover the African Cup from beginning to end. The African Cup has international media coverage and in some years has attracted over 26 billion viewers. We have been fortunate to be able to give significant coverage to the African Cup without compromising our musical programming.
Radio Afrodicia is not just a music program, but we offer a voice to Africans and African people in the Diaspora.
Radio Afrodicia airs live every Saturday from 4pm to 6pm (PST) on 90.7 FM in Los Angeles County, 98.7 FM in Santa Barbara County, or on the web at www.KPFK.org or here at Listen Live.
