For me, if anyone knows how to use manners, confidence, and style to get ahead, it's Fonzworth Bentley. And, as a matter of fact, that's the subtitle of his new book, Advance Your Swagger. To celebrate its release, we asked the hip-hop dandy and man-about-town to rate the... swaggerosity of a crew deeply in need of his advice—the top male presidential candidates....loll
