Fatherhood is not a monolith. It is like a track that flows then drops, with a hook that is unexpected yet perfectly timed. This year, in recognition of Father’s Day, HOT 97 leaned into the unexpected and partnered with ICON MANN and Toyota to salute four dynamic New York fathers. Each coming to the journey of fatherhood from a different lens of heritage, upbringing, and placement, but each driven by their unapologetic determination to be the best dad they can be. Join us in saluting Sanford Biggers, Mobolaji Dawodu, Dr. Robert Gore, Darren Graham, and every father who is putting in the work.
Meet Dr. Robert Gore
Meet Sanford Biggers
Meet Mobolaji Dawodu
Meet Darren Graham
Our commitment to entertain, inform, and celebrate our listeners at every stage of their lives is paramount. Many of our listeners who grew up with HOT 97 are now parents. As we continue to expand our content formats, we want to ensure that we always stay close to our communities. It is our privilege to honor the journeys of Black fatherhood. — Kudjo Sogadzi, President, HOT 97
