iHeartMedia’s Florida Division announced today that top-rated DJ and on-air personality PROSTYLE will make his return to the Florida airwaves. PROSTYLE will broadcast afternoons on 95.7 WBTP in Tampa and nights on 104.5 The Beat in Orlando.
PROSTYLE, one of the country’s most famous club DJs, began his career in Orlando, Florida, at WJHM and WPYO.

Throughout his career, PROSTYLE has gained popularity as a heavy hitter who earns high ratings and connects with the biggest recording artists and record labels in the industry.
In addition to broadcasting on 95.7 WBTP and 104.5 The Beat in Orlando, PROSTYLE will expand his reach and bring his mix talents to select Hip-Hop and Spanish Contemporary stations in Miami, Orlando, Tampa, West Palm Beach, Jacksonville, Fort Myers, Tallahassee and elsewhere.
