King Charles III to Air Radio Show on Apple Music

His Majesty King Charles III is adding a new title to his name: Radio DJ.

To coincide with Commonwealth Day in the UK on March 10th, Charles will launch the first episode of The King’s Music Room on Apple Music. Recorded in Buckingham Palace, the episode promises “exclusive insight into His Majesty King Charles III’s relationship with music from around the Commonwealth — including artists stretching from 1930s crooners to Afrobeats stars, as well as disco divas and reggae icons.”

The playlist apparently spans legends like Bob Marley, Kylie Minogue, and Grace Jones, alongside contemporary talents such as Davido and RAYE. The episode

“Throughout my life, music has meant a great deal to me,” Charles said in a statement. “I know that is also the case for so many others. It has that remarkable ability to bring happy memories flooding back from the deepest recesses of our memory, to comfort us in times of sadness, and to take us to distant places. But perhaps, above all, it can lift our spirits to such a degree, and all the more so when it brings us together in celebration. In other words, it brings us joy.”

The King’s Music Room premiere on Apple Music 1 on Monday, March 10th, at 6 a.m. GMT.
