History
W237BZ began broadcasting in November 2012 as a translator for WDCG-HD2, which signed on with an Alternative Rock format as "95X".

On January 9, 2018, the station rebranded as "Alt 95.3".

On November 11, 2021, at 10 a.m., WDCG-HD2/W236CA/W237BZ dumped the alternative format after 9 years and began stunting with Christmas music as "Christmas 95.3".

On December 20, 2021, 95.3 started airing sweepers for its future format, Classic Hip Hop as "95.3 The Beat", which would debut on December 26. At midnight on that date, after playing "Little Drummer Boy" by Bob Seger, W237BZ, W236CA, and WDCG-HD2 officially flipped to Classic Hip Hop as "95.3 The Beat". The first song on "The Beat" was "Party Up (Up in Here)" by DMX. The station is running 5,000 commercial-free songs in a row to launch its new format.
