Finally!! The world will know my full story, beyond being a brand, but as a Black man finding his place in the world. My struggle against poverty, crime, and drugs; social rebellion; and my quest for spiritual enlightenment. The tears, sadness, and the joys are all finally told. I am the sum total of everyone who has come into my life—thank you all. And thanks to everyone for supporting #DapperDanMadeInHarlem.?
EPISODE DESCRIPTION
With his now-legendary high-end store in Harlem, Dapper Dan was the pioneer of high-end streetwear in the 1980’s, remixing classic luxury-brand logos into his own innovative, glamorous designs. — Dapper Dan Made in Harlem
As the former host of What's Hot! New York, the music and entertainment segment of Fox 5 New York’s “The McCreary Report”, G. Keith Alexander interviewed nearly 200 of today’s R&B and Hip-Hop artists and introduced his audiences to their hot debut releases, giving many their first exposure on TV. It is no question that G. Keith knows talent. It is also no wonder because, G. Keith is, himself, a tremendous talent. In radio, television, and in advertising doing voice overs, he has built an impressive career as a media broadcaster and communicator, having influenced millions of people with the sound of his voice. And what a voice! It is smooth, distinctive and commanding -- like his personal style.
Born and raised in Chicago, G. Keith as a young boy had dreams of becoming a disc jockey and eventually became music director and afternoon jock for his native city's WGCI. His baritone delivery has also resounded over the airwaves of Disco 92 WKTU, 98.7 KISS-FM, former jazz station WRVR, Inner City Broadcasting's WBLS in the Big Apple, Clear Channel’s Jammin’ 105 and Infinity’s New MIX 102.7. And while New York City has remained his home throughout his professional career, his appeal has been national.
