Rhythmic Contemporary, also known as Rhythmic Top 40, Rhythmic CHR or Rhythmic Crossover, is a primarily American music-radio format that includes a mix of EDM, upbeat rhythmic   pop, hip hop and upbeat R&B hits. Rhythmic contemporary rarely uses rock or country in its airplay, but it may occasionally use a reggae, Latin, reggaeton, or a christian/gospel hit. Essentially, the format is a cross between mainstream radio and urban contemporary radio formats.
