So, all HBCU’s, fraternity, sororities and HBCUish colleges…join us.” D.J. Envy is a well-known American DJ, author, record producer, and radio personality. He currently co-hosts the wildly popular syndicated radio show “The Breakfast Club” from Power 105.1 FM in New York.

A three time “Justo Mixtape Award” winner, Envy won the award for “Most Influential Radio DJ” at the Underground Music Awards in 2008. “As an iconic figure in the New York hip-hop scene, D.J. Envy is the perfect person to help us celebrate the 50th anniversary of hip-hop and cap a full day of HBCU football and culture with style,” said HBCU New York Classic President Albert Williams. “What sets D.J. Envy apart is not only his remarkable talent but also his deep connection to the HBCU community. Having attended Hampton University, D.J. Envy proudly represents the legacy and values instilled in him during his time at the institution. He carries his HBCU experiences with him, and his love for supporting HBCUs shines through in his work.” “American Dream is thrilled to host the HCBU New York Classic after party and welcomes D.J.
