'''Tuff Gong Radio''' is a reggae [[Radio Stations in GTA IV|radio station]] in [[Grand Theft Auto IV]] hosted by [[Carl Bradshaw]]. It is considered a more traditional companion to [[Massive B Soundsystem 96.9|Massive B Soundsystem]], playing classical [[wp:reggae|reggae]] compared to Massive B's [[wp:dancehall|dancehall]], which is rooted at reggae but is more commercialized.


The station's existence is an apparent nod to the late [[wp:Bob Marley|Bob Marley]], a prominent reggae artist. Indeed, the station's playlist consists of nothing but music from [[wp:Bob Marley & The Wailers|Bob Marley & The Wailers]], as well as Bob Marley's two sons, [[wp:Stephen Marley (musician)|Stephen Marley]] and [[wp:Damian Marley|Damian Marley]]. The "Tuff Gong" name itself may be derived from a nickname of Bob Marley's (after Rastafari leader [[wp:Leonard Howell|Leonard "The Gong" Howell]]), or the name of [[wp:Tuff Gong|the label founded by Bob Marley & The Wailers]] in 1970.
