The Goods — social

Although the COVID-19 pandemic has put a halt to social activities at the moment, Flint native Anthony "DJ Hype" Carter has been providing nightlife vibes through his DJ sets on Facebook Live for the past three weekends.

A lover of music, community and the written word, Michigan native William E. Ketchum III has put pen to paper for years to deliver in-depth interviews and articles, and used his social media platform to dive deep into critical topics that affect the culture.

In December of 2019, GoodBoy Clothing was the spotlight feature on the national docu-series Start Up, hosted by Detroit host/creator/producer Gary Bredow. Airing exclusively on PBS, the episode features the fashionable clothing brand and its founder Oaklin Mixon as he continuously strives to break boundaries in his hometown of Flint, Michigan.

With an eye for design and a mission to help people find the inner designer within them, Detroit native Deon Mixon is on the right path to making his and others' dreams come true.

The amount of music that came out this year was nothing short of amazing as it catered to any mood you found yourself in. Whether you had a hot-girl summer or a Fall full of feels, 2019 had a song for every season and every reason.
