About the station

COSMO is an offering of WDR and, with Global Pop, targets an audience that looks beyond German mainstream. The station describes itself as a radio with voices from all over the world. On the website this shows above all in the languages: alongside German-language programmes there are its own shows in Bosnian, Croatian and Serbian, such as the Radio-Forum with Maja Marić in the evening.

The music section focuses on current releases from different directions. Each week the site presents an album of the week, currently Anderson .Paak and Cordae with „Heavy Is The Crown“, and there are also reviews, for example of Michael Kiwanuka’s „FUDGE“, and a section with global pop news. Hip-hop is an important point of reference, but not the only one.

Through events such as the series „COSMO Big Up!“ and a guest list campaign in which listeners can win concert tickets via the radio, the station also makes itself visible beyond its programme.
