Old school hip-hop is coming back to Sirius XM after having been axed from the lineup late last year. Sirius XM says it’s in response to “overwhelming” fan reaction. The company is listening to us!
Yeah, so starting on January 15 you’ll find Backspin back on your radio dial. (The disco channel, The Strobe, is also coming back, but my guess is that not too many of you are into disco.)
One of the Sirius XM higher-ups said that the company will continue to listen to fans regarding content changes, which is the smart thing to do. Sirius XM is hardly in the position to piss off its subscribers.
The moral of this story is, if Sirius XM has annoyed you in any capacity, complain till your voice is sore.

Finally! Not for this per se, but that they’re listening. They’re also bringing back Bubba the sponge lover or something. Anything to make this stock move…
-disco drew
the 18th letter puttin it down!
where the hell is fungus!!!!!!!!!!!! Sirius sucks!
Wise decision SIRIUS XM.
Listening to customers and keeping them happy is something that you, or any business for that matter, can do.
Thank you for bringing Backspin back. I’m 40 years old and I find it so hard to listen to today’s rap music. Old school rap is the way to go for me.
BACKSPIN RULES!!!!!!!!!!
I just found this out a few min ago. I accidentally flipped to 39 and Kool Mo De was on. The radio said Pop something. This is nice, I was ready to let my subscription expire.
