I think they should do kinda special playlists say 1 week a month or something, based around different themes but the same thing all the time would get as boring as if it were regular playlist.

Rap music week will be fun.... not

[Betti911]

Think I'd switch channels in trance/house week myself

[Gaspode_The_Wonder_Dog]

*hopes for B*witched week*

[Betti911]

Thant would either be a short week or their 2 famous songs on replay... torture or what

[Lucie]

Why on earth can't radio 1 be like this all the time? Seriously, I want an answer!

Err I LIKE rap... among many other types of music, I've kinda adopted an ethos John Peel would be proud of when it comes to music, give everything at least one listen.

maybe a few days a month, a whole week would be too much.

[Mafro]

Rap is great, mainstream rap isn't.

[Gaspode_The_Wonder_Dog]

hah yeah anything popular = rubbish.

so can an artist have a mainstream rap song and a 'great' one on one album? also where is Jay from 5ive.

i demand answers.

[Andy Bkr]

what would you count sean paul has? im not really into rap but love his music

[Gaspode_The_Wonder_Dog]

i'd have him in my hip hop list which is before my rap list and below my pop list.

[Mafro]

Sean Paul is dancehall.

[Eddie]

Sean Paul is dancehall.

is 'dancehall' some sort of slang word for crap that I don't know about?

[Gaspode_The_Wonder_Dog]

its a Jamaica thing... its actually in my bag o'sh*te list.

[Uglybob]

surely 1xtra is where it should be. theres only enough of bloody toy soldiers i can take

[Mafro]

Damn, I forgot Radio 1 is suppost to be indie music only.

[Eddie]

Damn, I forgot Radio 1 is suppost to be indie music only.

I wih it was, that would be heaven!

[Gaspode_The_Wonder_Dog]

haha i agree with eddie again. scary/

[Sidders]

I wih it was, that would be heaven!

It would get very boring though, and only appeal to about 10% of the British population.

Surely you people must appreciate at least a small amount of urban music?

[David]

Put Moyles on 6 Music and it would be brilliant.

6 Music has excellent playlists, just rather dull DJs. Phil Jupitas is good, but since Moyles has been on breakfast I've listened to him rather than Phil Jupitas.

[Gaspode_The_Wonder_Dog]

I listened to Phill Jupitas on listen again and he is rubbish.

[Eddie]

I agree that If Radio one only appealed to one audience type then that would be a bad business plan but it would not necesarrily be boring if thats the type of music you love.

Personally I'd like it to play Indie, rock and they could also keep the cheesy pop (you know, Girls aloud etc) but I really would LOVE it if it dropped anything hip hop/R&B based.

People do not have to like "Urban" stuff, I don't mind if people don't like indie/rock - that's their MISTAKE! ha ha

[Sidders]

I never said you have to like it, I just find it quite odd that even indie rockers cannot appreciate urban music.

[Eddie]

I can appreciate it i.e.I can understand that some people would like it cos everybody's different but personally I don't like it - when I say 'it' of course I don't mean everysingle song in that genre as there as some that I like a bit but still not enough to actually buy a copy.

[Gaspode_The_Wonder_Dog]

i appreciate classical music but i don't want that on radio 1 either...

[DemonHorse]

Yeah... how many of radio 1's target audience can say THAT?
