WJXM (95.1 MHz, "95.1 The Beat") is an urban contemporary music formatted FM radio station broadcasting in the Meridian, Mississippi, Arbitron market. In one form or another, WKZB had been a top 40 station in the market for over twenty years. While the station currently broadcasts on 95.1, it was originally located on the 101.3 frequency and carried a "Q101" branding. WKZB's original city of license was Meridian, but with the move to 95.1, it was relicensed to Marion, Mississippi. URBan Radio Broadcasting purchased the radio station from Clear Channel in 2007 and then sold it, along with its sister stations, to New South Communications in September 2011.
