Hurban

Hurban is a radio programming format from radio chain giant iHeartMedia and Senior VP Alfredo Alonso.[1] Hurban radio stations target young Hispanics in the United States, primarily consisting of reggaeton, Latin trap, Latin rap, and Latin dance. Advertisements and DJs are usually presented in a mixture of English and Spanish.[2]

The word hurban is a portmanteau of the terms "Hispanic" and "urban."[3]
