on january 7, 2016 at 9am, following ""blondie & nugget in the morning"", (on which the last song was "here" by alessia cara), ktfm began stunting as "94.1 el taco," giving away free tacos at various locations around san antonio, playing the parry gipp novelty song "it's raining tacos" (a spoof of "it's raining men" by the weather girls) on a loop, and its website emitting a green lightning strike with the word "energize." at 4pm, kjxk began stunting with country music, leading listeners and rivals to believe ktfm was moving back to 102.7; at the same time as ktfm's relaunch, the stunt on 102.7 was revealed to be a publicity stunt. at 5pm, ktfm transitioned back to rhythmic top 40 and relaunched as "energy 94.1", with the first song being "sorry" by justin bieber. the rebranding was done to emphasize its rhythmic/dance-focused presentation of current hits and club mixes featuring local talent, as well as distinguishing themselves from kbbt and kxxm whose ratings are higher than ktfm's, but does consistently well.
