Cocoteo FM brings modern Latin music-spanning bachata, merengue, dembow, and reggaeton-hosted by Bad Bunny and RaiNao under their in-game DJ handles El Martillo and La Gata. “Cocoteo gets our vibe, our slang, our taste, our pride, our experiences, our traditions, and all our crazy antics,” RaiNao told Pitchfork. “It feels incredibly special to lend my voice to GTA VI and do it in the best way possible: having fun, embodying a character who’s like me, and putting our culture, our music, and our people in the spotlight.” She added, “I was never extreme about video games, but GTA was one of my favorites…. Diving around in a stolen car, blasting music with all that adrenaline pumping was THE VIBE. It’s mind-blowing to know that I’ll now be part of that experience.” Back Country Radio delivers "renegade country" featuring Morgan Wallen and Lana Del Rey as in-game hosts MW and Delta Dawne, alongside Del Rey’s husband Jeremy Dufrene playing roving reporter, swamp meteorologist, and airboat captain Mud Dog Mike. “One of the coolest things about this is the fact that the first time some of our family got to LA they actually knew the roads because of playing the game,” Del Rey told Rolling Stone, referring to past editions of GTA. “On so many different levels this is super special and a privilege. Can’t wait to get into the game and start playing.” AfroBank FM showcases African music, amapiano, and 3-step with Burna Boy and selector Palms Trax going by their in-game handles Burna and Palmsy.
