What I don't know is why they feel they have to do this with all of the stations. Like, I know and like what Soul Town does. I don't need it to be moved, relabeled and relaunched as "Smokey's Soul Town". I guess they think there are fans of Smokey out there who haven't looked for a Motown channel yet?

(If anything Smokey is not all that high on my list of Motown acts. He's fine, but not the draw for me.)

I guess like most advertising, they seem to be treating it like celebrity endorsements increase engagement. That's all I can figure.
