On 1 April 2004, the public rock/pop radio station Radio 21 owned by the RTBF stops broadcasting to be replaced by two new radio stations, Classic 21 and Pure FM . In 2010, Pure FM changed its logo. In January 2017, the station dropped the "FM" suffix from its name.

From 7 September 2020, Pure FM merged with La Deux , RTBF's second channel, to form a new brand for young people called Tipik . Tipik is available on TV as a channel replacing La Deux, on radio replacing Pure FM, and online.
