On 13 January 2012, RNC Media applied to the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) to amend its licence conditions to allow 50% of its programming to be spoken-word and talk programming, with the remainder being its existing smooth jazz format (though its license also included other forms of jazz) as well as blues and additional special interest music genres.

[9] On 9 September 2014, the station rebranded as Radio 9,[10] heralding a new lineup including former RDI personality Louis Lemieux.

However, CKLX-FM continued to face competition from CHMP, as that station had the rights to most of Montreal's professional sports teams.

[13] In August 2016, RNC Media announced the addition of new live programs, including the weeknight Sports Extra with Meeker Guerrier (focusing on post-game coverage of Montreal Canadiens games during hockey season), and weekend evening Le 5 @ 7.

[14] In November 2016, the station announced that it had acquired the radio rights to the Laval Rocket, the Canadiens' American Hockey League affiliate, beginning in the 2017–18 AHL season under a five-year deal.

[15] On 28 August 2018, RNC Media announced the sale of CKLX and CHOI to Leclerc Communication, owner of Quebec City's CJEC-FM and CFEL-FM.

[19] In August 2022, RNC Media announced that it would extend CKLX's programming to sister stations CFTX-FM in Gatineau and CHXX-FM in Quebec City (which previously aired a CHR format as Vibe), with all three stations rebranding as BPM Sports beginning 29 August 2022.

Most of the network's programming will continue to come from Montreal, barring the new evening show La Tribune Capitale, which is hosted by Jordan Boivin from Quebec City.
