Rádio Fluminense FM was a Brazilian radio station based in Niterói, in the Rio de Janeiro Metropolitan Area. The station broadcast on 94.9 MHz and was controlled by the Grupo O Fluminense. Nicknamed "A Maldita" ("The Damned"), it was described by journalist Maria Estrella as "the gateway to Brazilian rock in the 80s." The station helped popularize rock music in Brazil and boosted the careers of Brazilian bands such as Legião Urbana, Barão Vermelho, Blitz, Kid Abelha, Biquini Cavadão, and Paralamas do Sucesso.
