==Current programming== Currently, WPGC is musically programmed as a hit-driven, full-service, urban contemporary station that spins a heavy concentration of mainly contemporary hip-hop, soul, [[go-go music|go-go]] and R&B music with numerous urban music throwbacks throughout the day and an occasional crossover pop hit song. The station directly competes with [[urban contemporary]] rival [[WKYS]] and [[Urban Adult Contemporary|urban adult contemporary]] rivals [[WMMJ]] and [[WHUR]] full-time, and to a lesser extent the station competes with [[contemporary hit radio]] rival [[WIHT]]. The station airs current and classic R&B and soul [[slow jam]]s late nights on Sunday through Thursday dubbed ''The Coolout''. After many years of only giving occasional spins to urban contemporary gospel music that charted well on the Billboard, the station added a program dedicated to the genre on early Sunday mornings. The station also airs urban and crossover pop music throwbacks on Sunday evenings. The station's signal covers both Washington and Baltimore, so it also competes with Baltimore's [[WERQ]], an [[Urban One]]-owned [[urban contemporary]] station, and to a lesser extent, [[iHeartMedia]]'s [[WZFT]] which has a more generic Top 40/CHR format. It is the only Audacy rhythmic/urban in the [[Eastern United States]] to use its call letters as a branding on-air (the other two, [[KSFM]] in [[Sacramento, California|Sacramento]] and [[KLUC-FM]] in [[Las Vegas, Nevada|Las Vegas]], are both in the [[Western United States]]). The station is an official sponsor of the [[Prince George's Film Festival]].<ref>{{Cite web |last=WPGC |date=2021-03-05 |title=Prince Georges Film Festival |url=https://www.audacy.com/wpgc/contests/poet-or-prince-georges-county-film-festival |access-date=2024-11-01 |website=WPGC website at audacity.com |language=}}</ref>
