Tonight there will be 2 premieres on the BET network, the first will be the 2009 Rip the Runway special at 9pm et and the series premiere of Harlem Heights at 10p/m et. Most of you know BET is, let's just say not up there with their quality of programming but they do offer some shows worth a watch with Harlem Heights showing some great potential. The show Harlem Heights follows a group of 20 somethings who reside in Harlem but the twist is it's not the stereotypical story. Sure when you read Harlem or hear the name Harlem you automatically assume ghetto but this is not the case. 'The cast consists of the ex-girlfriend of an international music star; a budding lifestyle editor for a magazine; a struggling actress; a young man with a troubled family; a native Harlem-ite and father of a young daughter; the hard-partying son of a prominent Harlem political leader; an aspiring lawyer with big ambitions; and a driven fashionista.' So be sure to check both shows out starting at 9p/m et on the BET network.
Not to be forgotten, our peepz Lamar James and AllyMissLove of the fresh blog SUPERSWAGGER.COM, will be making guest appearances on Harlem Heights throughout the season. Lamar will also be taking a turn on the runway for T.I.'s Akoo line for the Rip the Runway special. Special shout outs to them, they've been more than good to The C.S. Perspective.
