Powerhouse
Over the decades, the Powerhouse concerts have become an institution in hip-hop, put on by a radio station that's remained a mainstay of urban contemporary music for decades. WUSL 98.9, out of Philadelphia (better known to its huge audience as Power 99 FM) has sponsored the annual Powerhouse concerts since 1982. Fans know that every time autumn rolls around, they can expect an onstage onslaught of major players in the hip-hop game giving their all — and getting back a ton of love from the crowd.
Power 99 was joined by New York City station WWPR 105.1 (aka Power 105.1) when it became a go-to source for hip-hop and R&B in 2002. These days, the Powerhouse concerts are a two-pronged event with shows sponsored by both stations. Looking back over the history of the Powerhouse shows is a little bit like glancing back at the history of hip-hop itself. Year after year, the event has hosted the major artists of the moment, whether that meant featuring Xzibit, Ludacris and Ja Rule in 2001, showcasing Drake, Rick Ross and Trey Songz in 2011, or offering the likes of Cardi B, Lil Uzi Vert and G-Eazy in 2018.

There was not enough kiosk serving drinks. I missed 3 artist performances because of a 30 min wait in line to get a drink. There was only one bartenders no velvet rope to control the line and a missive young adult crowd waiting to cause chaos.
It was a great show but the venue prudential center didn’t keep some audience members from coming to the front or jumping on chairs. It was chaotic and in previous years it was more organized.
I had a blast. Went with my daughter and niece and they enjoyed themselves sooo very much. My Daughters first concert. She swears Aboogie is her cousin ???? she was in her feet when he came out. Cant wait till next time
Show was lit minus the second hand smoke overall 100
I really had a good time…I enjoyed all the artists and lil uzvert loosing his chain?????♀??????♀??????♀?
The sets were cool but some were lazy with no effort. Lil uzi was terrible
I had fun and enjoyed myself to the max I’m there next year again
Needed more performances the artist was average at performing
Great vibe Great energy Artist where on point! I would deff go again!
