Miami Radio: 'PK's Throwback' Debuts On iHM's 105.5 FM

iHeartMedia/Miami has debuted “PK’s Throwback 105.5,” a new classic hip-hop outlet in Miami.

The station is airing commercial free for 105 days and playing “Old Skool” music from Bel Biv DeVoe, Mary J. Blige, Notorious B.I.G., 2Pac, Luke, Jay Z, Lauryn Hill and more.

The driving force behind the new station is Papa Keith - the PK in the station’s moniker. Keith is afternoon host at urban contemporary  WMIB 103.5 The Beat,  who has strong ties to the South Florida hip-hop and R&B communities. He first honed his skills in hip-hop and reggae clubs and built up his name on the streets, eventually landing at Miami’s notorious underground station “Mixx 96,” which set off his career in radio.

“I’m so excited to share my music memories on this new station,” Keith said. “My listeners will get to hear another side of me.”

“PK’s Throwback 105.5” originates on the WMIB 103.5 FM HD3 and broadcasts on translator W288DD at 105.5, licensed to Tamarac FL

W288DD 105.5 FM ( 85 watts)
“We’re excited to launch PK’s Throwback 105.5 and throw it back in the now with Papa Keith,” senior vice president of programming Alex Tear added. “Get ready for the ultimate Old Skool playlist!”
