Every HBCU event has that one person who turns the mic into magic. The one whose voice commands the room, whose energy lifts the crowd, and whose presence is felt long after the music stops. Whether it’s a packed gym during homecoming, a buzzing step show, or a fashion show finale, HBCU hosts are the heartbeat of the culture—and this year, we’re giving them their flowers.

After weeks of voting, thousands of submissions, and even a few friendly campus rivalries, the results are in. HBCU Buzz is proud to present the Top HBCU Hosts of 2025, as voted by you—the students, alumni, and fans who know exactly who brings the heat to the mic. These hosts don’t just announce; they amplify. They bring the crowd in, hype the moment up, and make sure every event feels unforgettable. Hosting at an HBCU isn’t just about having a good voice—it’s about having presence, rhythm, authenticity, and being tapped into the culture in a way that’s real.

Curious what went down last year? In 2024, Vibe.WitV from North Carolina A&T led the pack and took the crown, followed closely by MrDieLittt from Southern and J Reid at Fayetteville State. See all the winners and highlights from that year right here: Top HBCU Hosts 2024 .

This year’s list reflects the growing power of student voices and Black creatives across the HBCU space. Some of these hosts are campus legends, others are rising stars just getting started, but every single one of them embodies the spirit of leadership, charisma, and cultural pride. Whether they’re bringing fire intros at the pep rally or curating vibes at the biggest parties on the Yard, these students are pushing the standard for what it means to host at an HBCU.

We salute each of these mic kings and queens for their dedication to the craft—and to the culture. You didn’t just make noise this year; you made impact. Keep the mics hot, the energy high, and the legacy strong.
