Quotes
During "Be Spin"
Flying Lotus: "Yeah... Let's go to the phones real quick."
Carl: "Yeah, I'm calling in to request any music... that ain't this? Stop playing everything you've been playing, because your music sounds like a dumpster rolling down five flights of stairs!"
During "Catapult Man"
Flying Lotus: "Yeah... Los Santos, you're tuned in to FlyLo FM, live and direct from the lab on another crazy, crazy day... Shit is fucking going down right now, man, especially on Blaine County."
Unknown Voice: "Seriously, this one of the most erratic places I've ever been to in my entire life."
Flying Lotus: "Real talk. But my man on the streets knows what's up, and he's gonna tell you better than me. Hannibal, let them know."
Hannibal: "Stay out of Blaine County! Everybody's on meth. They don't care about you people getting robbed and killed in Blaine County. You stop asking them for directions, you wake up in the trunk of your car, your wallet's gone, they took your iFruit full of power ballads... It's a mess! You don't want to be there. I recommend going to Vespucci Beach. It's kind of chill, it's all types of characters... Back to you, FlyLo."
Flying Lotus: "Yeah, that's the real shit. So all you tourists out there, man - take care, take the proper precautions, lock indoors, keep your children nuzzled to your bosoms... And we'll get back in to it."
During "Windowlicker"
Flying Lotus: "Yeah, you're now tuned to a pirate signal coming at you live from underground. FlyLo FM, where we're bringing you some of the best music the world has ever heard. And we're giving some of the greatest love the world has ever felt."
During "Work Title: What We Want"
Flying Lotus: "We are listening to FlyLo FM."
Unknown Voice: "What the hell is a Flying Lotus?"
During "B Adams"
Flying Lotus: "Let's get back to the phones again."
David: "Listen, I'm a doctor. Last night, when you were all asleep, I replaced your memories artificially. Try to remember something, it didn't happen! Your recollections are entirely synthetic. Mine too. I'm not a doctor, I just think I am. FlyLo... You've got to help me, man."
Deleted Songs
GTA V's trackID.gxt2 database reveals one more song was planned to appear on the station but was not included in the final version. An unremixed version of it appears on the Next Gen Non-Stop-Pop FM.
Trivia
- The station seems to be connected to Adult Swim & Cartoon Network, as some of the artists in the station had their music featured on the program's bumpers.
- FlyLo FM may be Rockstar's answer for Adult Swim WDDTCPDG - a radio station featured in Saints Row: The Third, which is also connected to Adult Swim & Cartoon Network.
- Carl Brutananadilewski from Aqua Teen Hunger Force, created by Dave Willis who also voiced him, makes a cameo as an angry caller to the station. Hannibal Buress from The Eric Andre Show and Tyler, the Creator, who has his own show called Loiter Squad, also make cameo appearances on the station, with Hannibal as FlyLo's street reporter and Tyler as a caller to the station. Both of their shows are on Adult Swim, showing more evidence that the station is in fact connected to it.
- David Firth, an animator known for various internet shorts and series (Salad Fingers, Burnt Face Man) appears as a disturbed caller who rambles about how he isn't a doctor. This segment appears only in the Enhanced version.
- This is one of the four radio stations that don't feature commercials. The others are WorldWide FM, Soulwax FM and East Los FM 106.2.
- This is likely to be one of Molly Schultz's favorite radio stations as this is one of the default radio stations in her car, the other being Soulwax FM.
- This is also Tao Cheng's favorite radio station as he will dance along to this station as seen during the mission Trevor Philips Industries, alongside Soulwax FM & Non-Stop-Pop FM.
- The song "Shred You to Bits" by The Gaslamp Killer was not credited in the manual, despite it appearing in-game, although it wasn't properly named. The song remained nameless until the Heists Update fixed this issue.
- Some of the station's songs featured in the PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC versions of GTA V are anachronistically featured as they were released in 2014, despite the storyline being set in 2013.
