I'm with Blastbot on this request.
Show the artist and song title in response to a Genre search.
I suspect that half the stations claiming to be playing a particular genre do not, and so for users the search by genre listing is useless now.

So displaying the artist/song would at least give us a hint as to what a station is about.

But as a user, I would suggest adding the ability for listeners to flag stations that falsely advertise their genres just to boost their audience totals. Limit the number of genres you can claim, and allow those to be challenged.
