Looks like BET is trying to step up their game with the programming.  They just introduced a new reality show, “Harlem Heights”, that will be following the lives of several young, gifted and Black 20-somethings living in Harlem USA.

Via the NY Daily News:

“”Harlem Heights,” premiering March 2 on BET, captures the “young, black and fabulous crowd” of one of New York’s most famous neighborhoods.

The cast includes a lifestyle editor for the basketball publication Dime magazine, an aspiring actress, a fashionista, a young man contemplating a career in politics and even a young dad. It’s a group of friends moving out of college and into the working world.”

To those nay-sayers that say that this show is just a copycat of previous Viacom shows such as “The Hills” and “Baldwin Hills”:

“This show isn’t ‘The Hills,’ ” said BET president Loretha Jones. “The cast was friends before, so their relationships are natural and they allowed us to follow them in such a way that they were unconcerned with the cameras being there, and let us capture the real interactions.”

One of our previous Fab Men of the Week, model, Lamar James will be featured on the show as well.  Check out his interview HERE in which he briefly mentions it.

Kanye West’s ex-girlfriend, Brooke Crittendon is said to be the narrator, and also one of the cast members.  Dare I say, I’m actually excited about this show and am really interested in seeing it plays out.
