WDZZ-FM

WDZZ-FM (92.7 MHz, "Z92.7") is a radio station broadcasting an urban adult contemporary format, licensed to Flint, Michigan, and under ownership of Cumulus Media.

WDZZ was founded by Vernon Merritt in 1979 as the Flint area's first FM station to target African-American audiences, playing a mixture of disco music and jazz which eventually evolved into mainstream Urban Contemporary.

WDZZ had an immediate impact, as the station debuted at number one in the Arbitron ratings in its first full ratings period (which was Spring 1980, as Flint was only measured by Arbitron once per year at that time), with a share of over 11 per cent.

Current DJs include Rickey Smiley, August, Chris McKinney, Keith Sweat and Sunday Morning Gospel Host Eugene Brown.

WDZZ currently ranks at #1 (13.1) in the Flint market according to the Fall 2020 Nielsen Audio Ratings release.
