Along with amazing music of each type, these radio stations also play scripted commercials and have funny interviews with in-game characters. These interviews are often hilarious parodies of real-life celebrities and often end in some sort of confrontation.
These radio stations often play tracks that go along with the setting of the game. For example, GTA San Andreas consists of a lot of old-school hip hop like Tupac Shakur and NWA to match the gang-ridden Los Santos setting. This kind of music always immerses players into the world and makes players adore these radio stations.
GTA 5 has the most radio stations out of any game in the franchise, with each radio station having their own distinct identity and genre of music.

With GTA 5 not going anywhere soon, licensing doesn’t seem to be an issue like in GTA 4. GTA 4 had a patch released that removed a bunch of its soundtracks when their licenses expired.
