As part of his mission to support the community Danny Fantom has taken it upon himself to use his voice to uplift the Canal District and Water Street community and highlight the struggles that have developed since the construction and opening of Polar Park.
Recently he made a public plea with friends and fans to support small businesses surrounding Polar Park, “A less prevalent conversation regarding the WooSox and Polar Park is how it is affecting LOCAL BUSINESSES! Yeah it’s cool to say support local, or help the little guys, but what actually matters is the fact that the parking situation when the game is in town is suffocating the ability for some of these businesses to survive…People that patronize, employees, and owners at any business in/around the stadium are forced to pay event parking, if available, and/or circle the block long enough to find a meter to park at.”
Danny Fantom also had the privilege of throwing out the first pitch at June 12, 2021 and the joy he felt in that moment radiated through a bright smile that was glued to his face. As he anticipates the birth of his second child this year, Danny Fantom maintains focus on being the best Father he can to his children.
“How do I prepare my son for manhood? Teach him to choose his battles and maintain his peace by learning restraint, patience, and how to love and how to find happiness,” he shared upon reflection of his son’s last day of third grade.
An artist with three successful albums and another set to be released, his own clothing line, a beautiful family, and a city that adores him so much that he’s referred to as “Mayor Fantom”, Danny Fantom is beloved by all. As his career continues to blossom, the possibilities for this skilled and poetic lyricist are endless.
