KISSTORY R&B is Bauer Media's dedicated R&B extension of the KISS and KISSTORY family. Launched nationally on DAB+ in September 2024, the station was created to take a deeper dive into the R&B side of the Old Skool & Anthems sound. Its playlist concentrates on recognisable R&B from the 1990s, 2000s and 2010s, covering everything from club-era favourites and polished pop-R&B to slower tracks and vocal-led anthems.

Artists associated with the KISSTORY R&B sound include Usher, Destiny's Child, Craig David and Mary J. Blige, alongside many of the performers who helped make R&B one of the defining mainstream genres of the late 1990s and 2000s. The tighter R&B focus separates the station from the broader KISSTORY playlist, giving listeners a dedicated destination for old skool R&B, throwback anthems, slow jams and songs that crossed between clubs and mainstream radio.

The weekday schedule combines presenter-led shows with long stretches of uninterrupted music. Ace takes the morning slot from 6am, AJ follows from 10am and Esi takes over from 3pm, with Non-stop KISSTORY R&B filling other parts of the schedule. The station broadcasts nationally on DAB+ through the Sound Digital multiplex on Block 11A at 216.928 MHz, with additional DAB+ carriage in Inverness on Block 11B. The live KISSTORY R&B stream is also available directly through Radio Player UK.

Notable shows & presenters are:

• Ace - Ace on KISSTORY R&B: Presents the morning show from 6am to 10am, playing four hours of R&B Old Skool and Anthems from across the station's core 90s, 00s and 10s sound.
• AJ - AJ on KISSTORY R&B: Takes over from 10am until 3pm with five hours of major R&B throwbacks, familiar old skool tracks and anthems from some of the genre's biggest artists.
• Esi - Esi on KISSTORY R&B: Presents the afternoon show from 3pm to 7pm, continuing the station's mix of R&B Old Skool and Anthems through the afternoon and into the early evening.
• R&B Slow Jams: A specialist overnight strand dedicated to smoother R&B, slow jams and vocal-led favourites, giving the schedule a different pace from the daytime old skool and anthem shows.
• Non-stop KISSTORY R&B: The station's main music-led block, delivering uninterrupted R&B Old Skool and Anthems outside the core presenter shows.
