Video: Mic Stewart - "Im Not From Brooklyn"
Though at first glance, he looks likes a hipster from Williamsburg or a dazed street performer, Philly bred emcee Mic Stewart flexes his lyrical skills on the track "Im Not From Brooklyn" and shows that you can't judge a book by its cover. The video does a good job of showing people passing judgment and learning to appreciate what he's doing. He tells a quick story about what inspires him and pays homage to BK emcee Mos Def with a "booka, booka, booka" chant in the hook. If youre impressed with his flow, he happens to be the Red Bull National Freestyle Champ from 2012, so that shows that he is well-tested. Hopefully, we get to see more from Mic Stewart and his playful style in the years to come. Check out more of his work at the links below.

Fine Art Friday: Avraham Eilat - "Landscapes of Void"
While thumbing through an older issue of Carrier Pigeon magazine, I came across the work of Avraham Eilat and wanted to share his work for any fans of the Fine Art Friday series on my site. Though his resume is more academic than most artists work that I post here, I am always impressed with how some artists can create work from war torn nations and put a fresh spin on it without having to shock or trumpet the message. Eilat was born in Tel-Aviv, Israel and currently lives in Ein Hod and splits time in his studio in Pyramida and in Ein Hod,Israel, Dusseldorf, Germany and Paris, France. This series is called "Landscapes of Void" and focuses on abandoned battlegrounds and other plots of land where tragedy or conflict has ended. Not for everyone, but I like the concept behind it.
