Featured Artist: Mach Five

I've been a fan of Mach Five for some time now. 

 The Atlanta duo teamed up with Trinidad James

 for their latest single 'Who You Rollin' Wit," which will be 

featured on their Art Rap LP, dropping Jan 15.

A.ware and Corey Davis made their debut in 2008 with their EP Stepchild and have remained on their grind since. Last year they released their Ratchet Shit trilogy EP with collaborations from Juicy J, Danny Brown and Bilal.

Featured Artist: Miya Bailey

Miya Bailey, Miya bailey, where do I begin. I'm a huge fan and I've been following Miya's work for some time now. In the past five years I have watched him create so much art. From painting, to tattoos, and even films. Just google "Miya Bailey".

"Struggle, Joy, Failure, Success; words like these could serve as the backdrop for the next big hollywood blockbuster, or a description of a tattoo artist's life. Color Outside the Line is the first film that provides a deep look into the history, culture and lives of the world's top black tattoo artists. Creating a film that would accurately tell the stories of these amazing artists, was initially a dream that manifested into a reality when world renowned tattoo artist, Miya Bailey lined with burgeoning filmmaker Artemus Jenkins. After three years of filming and tattooing everywhere from Atlanta to Amsterdam, this film is here to make sure the story and legacies of these artist will live on forever." - Color Outside the Lines: A tattoo Documentary- Directed by: Artemus Jenkins Conceived and Produced by: Miya Bailey

Paper Frank: My Beautiful Anxiety

21 year old, Paper Frank has created a name for himself in the Atlanta art scene. 

I have been following his work for a while now and I couldn't be more impressed. His use of color and subject conjure up a lot of emotions for me personally. 

I am honored to show you the photos that I created while viewing his art.

Enjoy!
