For a period, it was home to WEMD-FM, which broadcast a Christian music format.In the early 2000s, the station was acquired by Radio One (now Urban One), a major owner of urban-formatted radio stations. Following the acquisition, the station underwent a format change to Urban Adult Contemporary and adopted the WZOO-FM call letters.
