Radio Stations
Radio stations, trailer songs, in-game music labels, and artist involvement in Grand Theft Auto VI. Coral Chorus is the only station Rockstar has named so far. A V-Rock t-shirt appears in Trailer 2, but no playable V-Rock station has been confirmed.

Radio Stations
Grand Theft Auto VI has in-game radio, and Rockstar has named one station so far, Coral Chorus. A V-Rock t-shirt appears in Trailer 2, but no playable V-Rock station has been confirmed. The t-shirt is set in Vice City, the game's setting. Both official trailers feature licensed music playing on in-car radios, and multiple real-world artists have publicly confirmed their involvement in the game's soundtrack.
Station Status
V-Rock
V-Rock has not been confirmed as a playable station in Grand Theft Auto VI. The sole piece of evidence is a V-Rock t-shirt worn by Jason in Trailer 2. A garment bearing a station's logo establishes that the brand exists in the world, but it does not establish that the station is on the radio dial, and Rockstar has published nothing further about it.
Coverage of the August 2026 Extended Look did not name a single radio station, so no additional stations have been confirmed since Coral Chorus. Treat any station list circulating outside Rockstar's own announcements as unverified.
Coral Chorus
Coral Chorus is the one Grand Theft Auto VI radio station Rockstar has named. The name is visible on a vehicle's radio display in one of the 70 official screenshots released alongside Trailer 2 in May 2025. Its genre, playlist and hosts have not been announced.
The Official Album
On September 17, 2026, Rockstar announced Grand Theft Auto VI: The Album, 34 original tracks set for release on November 19, 2026, with six singles out on the day of the announcement. Rockstar has not said whether any of those songs play on an in-game station, so the album adds nothing to the list of named stations. See Soundtrack for the released singles.
Confirmed Trailer Songs
Six songs have been positively identified across the two official trailers. Trailer 1 used a single featured track, while Trailer 2 incorporated multiple songs as brief radio snippets heard during driving sequences.
Song | Artist | Trailer | Context |
|---|---|---|---|
Love Is a Long Road | Tom Petty | Trailer 1 | Featured track for the entire trailer; Spotify streams surged roughly 37,000% |
Hot Together | The Pointer Sisters | Trailer 2 | Main featured song; Spotify streams surged 182,000% within two hours |
Everybody Have Fun Tonight | Wang Chung | Trailer 2 | Brief car radio snippet during a driving sequence |
Thunder Island | Jay Ferguson | Trailer 2 | Background radio snippet during a scene with Jason and Brian Heder |
Talkin' to Myself Again | Tammy Wynette | Trailer 2 | Radio snippet during Jason's driving sequence |
Child Support | Zenglen | Trailer 2 | Haitian kompa track; plays as a radio snippet while Jason drives |
The inclusion of Zenglen's "Child Support" is particularly notable. Zenglen is a Haitian kompa band, and the song's presence in the trailer reflects Vice City's large Haitian community, mirroring real-life Miami's significant Haitian population. The trailer songs span rock, pop, country, kompa and R&B, though none of them has been confirmed as station content.
Only Raw Records
Only Raw Records is an in-game hip-hop record label confirmed on the official Rockstar Games website. The label is run by two characters: Dre'Quan Priest (a former street-level dealer turned music industry figure) and Boobie Ike (who owns the Jack of Hearts strip club, real estate, and a recording studio). The label is part of the game's fictional music scene, with its own signed artists.
Real Dimez
Real Dimez are a fictional rap duo signed to Only Raw Records. The duo consists of Bae-Luxe and Roxy, who appear in Trailer 1 dancing on top of a car during a street takeover scene. Their inclusion points to fictional in-world music existing alongside licensed real-world tracks, though Rockstar has not said whether their songs play on the radio.
Artist Self-Confirmations
Several real-world musicians have publicly confirmed their involvement in GTA VI, though the specifics of their roles (radio station DJs, featured artists, or voice actors) vary.
Artist | Confirmation | Details |
|---|---|---|
T-Pain | Twitch livestream | Confirmed involvement on stream; said Rockstar asked him to stop playing on a third-party roleplay server because of his role |
ScHoolboy Q | X (Twitter) | Replied to a fan in February 2024 that he would be in the game |
Panama | Social media reply (since deleted) | Said in a since-deleted reply that their song "Back to Life", a collaboration with Poolside, would appear; unverified |
Music Streaming Impact
Both trailers had a measurable effect on real-world music streaming. Tom Petty's "Love Is a Long Road" (1989) saw its Spotify streams surge roughly 37,000% after Trailer 1's release in December 2023. The Pointer Sisters' "Hot Together" (1986) experienced an even larger spike of 182,000% within two hours of Trailer 2's release in May 2025. These numbers are consistent with the trailer viewership records documented in the awards and reception article.
