A variety talk show mixing comedic riffs with insightful conversation and diverse guests. Representing the opposite ends of Harlem, the Beast from the East and the Best of the West bring their eclectic world views together twice a month to dish on current events and philosophize about a predetermined topic—or maybe just talk to each other. They'll play it by ear.

Welcome back beloveds!
And welcome to our first recording from a brand new studio! We may sound a little different but we're still Harlem's Heroes. Today's featured guest is a true self-starter, from reselling shoes in middle school to starting his own management agency. Grant Solis talks to us about how he accrued his impressive Instagram following, the current state of fashion trends, why Paris has a better fashion week than New York, and much more.
FEAT. A stern call for the black community to abandon shiesty masks.
