Re: 2k1 Radio in Detroit
The reason stations stay stuck in the '80s and that '90s-based formats have largely failed is that the '80s (specifically around 1983-1986) was really the last decade of mass-appeal Top 40 before it started to splinter off into Hot AC, Rhythmic CHR, Rock 40, and so on. You couldn't play all the music that was popular on the Billboard Hot 100 during the '90s and '00s and have it sound like anything other than a trainwreck. Celine Dion, Garth Brooks, Notorious B.I.G. and Puddle of Mudd on one station sounds like a recipe for disaster. You have Fuel 92.1 in Lansing which does try to play all of those genres together and is hardly what any major-market programmer in their right mind would dare to emulate, and their terrible ratings bear this out.
Realistically, the closest you're going to get to this format here is probably 105.1 The Bounce. Like it or not, Throwback Hip-Hop is "millennial hits" in Detroit.

Sounds more like a small market format.

Re: 2k1 Radio in Detroit
Other than Lansing, the only other "Fuel" stations I know of are in unrated markets like Jackson, Ohio and Morehead, Kentucky. It seems like that package has about 17 different formats depending on which time of the day or week you tune in. College stations are programmed better and sound more cohesive than Fuel.

After listening to that demo, it sounds (in the little that I’ve listened to them) like the satellite service on Tawas City’s 106.1 The Point https://thepointfm.net/
