Beats 1, one of the world’s most listened-to radio stations, is now known as Apple Music 1. Apple also introduces two new live global radio stations on Apple Music—Apple Music Hits and Apple Music Country. All three stations are available to music fans in 165 countries.
I’ve been a Beats 1 fan since Apple Music’s launch in 2015 and for me, the sole reason I listen to Apple Music. Its unique programming featuring the incredible music, best artists and exclusive interviews and premieres also makes it an incredible platform to discover and learn more about your favourite artists.
Now Apple Music 1, the station has state-of-the-art studios in Los Angeles, New York, Nashville, and London. The global music station is led by cornerstone presenters Zane Lowe, Ebro Darden, Brooke Reese, Dotty, Hanuman Welch, Matt Wilkinson, Nadeska, Rebecca Judd, and Travis Mills. It also offers a lineup of shows from the biggest names in music, including some of my favourites on Apple Music 1–Elton John (his set list is fantastic), Billie Eilish, Frank Ocean, and The Weeknd. Let’s not forget Action Brenson, Joe Kay, Lil Wayne, Vince Staples, as well as new shows from Aitch, Kerwin Frost, HAIM, Lady Gaga, Nile Rodgers, Travis Scott, Young M.A, and many more.
Apple Music 1 also features several shows dedicated to Latin music, including a new show from J Balvin and listener favourites “Dale Play! With Sandra Pena” and “La Formula Radio with El Guru.” Additionally, the station is how to “Africa Now Radio with Cuppy,” Showcasing the best local African music and artists.

The new Apple Music Hits station offers a full catalogue of the biggest hits from the ‘80s, ‘90s, and 2000s. The station will be helmed by daily on-air hosts Jayde Donovan, Estelle, Low-key, Jenn Marino, Sabri, Nicole Sky and Natalie Sky, and George Stroumboulopoulos (“House of Strombo”), along with special shows from Ari Melber, and others.
