The only song in the game ''with'' lyrics is the theme song remix with [[Music/WuTangClan Ghostface Killah]] and Music/MFDoom, and that's only in the UsefulNotes/PlaystationPortable and mobile ports! Additionally, most stations are dedicated to and named after either a single artist, such as Music/Deadmau5 or Alchemist, or to a record label like DFA or Truth + Soul. The outliers are Turntables on the Hudson, a music festival, and [=SinoWav=] FM, a fictional station playing traditional Chinese music.

* SummerBlockbuster: The film ''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5vDu2se24TA Meltdown]]'' in ''V'' is a scathing parody of both these sorts of films (especially ''Film/WallStreet'' and, to a lesser extent, its sequel) and of [[UsefulNotes/TheBlockbusterAgeOfHollywood modern Hollywood filmmaking]] in general. It's a thriller about the Great Recession... mutated, by the Hollywood machine, into a shallow [[BlackAndWhiteMorality good vs. evil tale]] about two rival yuppies in Liberty City. It's shot entirely on green screen for no good reason, it features a SatelliteLoveInterest who only appears once before she completely disappears (until the end, at least), late '00s buzzwords like "subprime" and "derivatives" are thrown around with little understanding as to what they mean, and it has an action-packed finale that comes out of nowhere. It also has a talking chimp, because... hey, why not? Furthermore, through Michael's connections to Solomon Richards, we get to witness first-hand how this hot dog is made. The kicker is that, going by news reports after it comes out, it was apparently [[CriticalDissonance a smash hit with audiences nationwide, even though critical reception was mixed]].
