DJ King Charles Is in the House! The Monarch Curates a Special Apple Music Show for Commonwealth Day
King Charles is stepping behind the DJ booth—well, his desk at Buckingham Palace—to curate a special playlist for Apple Music.
The 76-year-old monarch is taking listeners on a musical journey, offering insight into songs from across the Commonwealth. Recorded in his office, The King’s Music Room features an eclectic mix of artists, from 1930s classics to modern stars like Kylie Minogue, Bob Marley, Afrobeats icons Davido and RAYE, and the legendary Grace Jones.
The show, created to celebrate Commonwealth Day on March 10, premieres at 1 a.m. EST on Apple Music 1 and is free to stream.
A Musical Reflection from the King
Opening the broadcast, King Charles shares, “Throughout my life, music has meant a great deal to me. It has the power to bring back cherished memories, offer comfort in difficult times, and transport us to distant places. But above all, music lifts our spirits—especially when it brings us together in celebration. In other words, it brings us joy.”
Apple describes the special program as a reflection of the King’s personal taste, shaped by his “extraordinary experiences from around the world.” During the broadcast, he shares anecdotes about meeting various artists and explains why certain songs hold personal significance.
Rachel Newman, Apple Music’s global head of content and editorial, expressed her excitement: “Human curation has always been at the heart of Apple Music. We’re honored that King Charles III is sharing his personal playlist with music lovers worldwide.”
The King and Apple: A Growing Relationship
As Head of the Commonwealth—a global network of 56 nations, including Australia, Canada, India, and Kenya—King Charles has long celebrated the region’s cultural diversity. His musical selections showcase the Commonwealth’s rich artistic heritage.
This isn’t the first time a royal has collaborated with Apple. Prince William previously recorded an episode of Time to Walk for Apple Fitness+, offering a glimpse into his life while walking through Norfolk.
In December 2024, King Charles visited Apple’s London headquarters at Battersea, where he met CEO Tim Cook.
The King’s Music Room premieres on Apple Music 1 on Monday, March 10, at 6 a.m. EST. It will also be available on demand for Apple Music subscribers, with additional free radio broadcasts airing throughout Monday and Tuesday.
