I feel like this is an improper name. Radio stations that play only songs that are already (current) hits are nothing unusual; it's called Top 40. What this trope really describes is playing only songs that will be remembered — usually fondly — decades later. How about "Future Classics Radio"? Sounds like something you might hear in a Simpsons flashback episode. "You're listening to Future Classics Radio, where we promise to only play songs your unborn kids will have heard of!"
