iHeartMedia's Hip Hop WWPR (Power 105.1) New York has announced two leadership promotions, naming Alexander Santelises -- known on-air as DJ Prostyle -- as Assistant Program Director and elevating Symantha Wilson to Music Director for Power 105.1 and Producer for The Breakfast Club. Both appointments are effective immediately.

In their expanded roles, Prostyle and Wilson will help direct the station's programming vision, refine its music strategy, and strengthen listener engagement. They will work closely with the senior programming team, including Executive Vice President of Programming Thea Mitchem and Eddie Fennell, Assistant Program Director and Executive Producer for The Breakfast Club. Prostyle will also continue as evening air talent at co-owend WKTU (103.5 KTU).

"I'm incredibly honored and thrilled to step into this next chapter of my career as APD at Power 105.1," said DJ Prostyle. "This station has been a defining voice in Hip-Hop, and I'm excited for the opportunity to help shape its next era alongside the best in the business. Thank you, Thea, for this incredible opportunity. I'm happy to be back-let's go!"

Wilson called the promotion a "full-circle moment," adding, "This station shaped my earliest years, so joining Thea Mitchem, Eddie Fennell and Prostyle on the leadership team is an honor."

Mitchem praised both leaders for their long-standing contributions. "Prostyle and Symantha have truly earned these promotions through their hard work, creativity and dedication to the Power 105.1 brand," she said. "Both bring an unmatched passion for music and a deep understanding of how to engage listeners and grow audiences in today's competitive landscape."
