The Art of Illustration
"Illustrators articulate what a photograph cannot. Using an array of techniques and styles, illustrators evoke stories and meaning in a variety of mediums, from editorial illustration in magazines and newspapers, to comics books, to activist media. And as their tasks over the years have become less informational and more expressive, their individual voice as artists becomes all the more critical and beautiful, revealing an exciting and awe-inspiring age of illustration."

Weekend Retrospective | The Tom Green & Xzibit freestyle
Who thinks of Tom Green as a bad ass rhyme-spittin' MC with a whole lotta' flow? I didn't. But I probably should have because one day I saw this.

At a certain point in the interview Tom Green feels like a freestyle, requests a beat from his house DJ, and asks Xzibit if he'd like to join in at any time to feel free. Mildly amused, Xzibit sarcastically replies to the court jester, "If you inspire me, I'll jump right in."...

Questlove's appearance on "The Daily Show"
Earlier this week Ahmir "Questlove" Thompson of The Roots appeared on the "The Daily Show" to promote his new book/memoir Mo' Meta Blues. Though short (at roughly 5.5 minutes) in length the interview yielded a fascinating discussion which touches upon Questlove's traumatic experience involving his favorite show "Soul Train" and the modulated bridge of Freddy's Dead off of the Superfly soundtrack and what he considers to be the most influential moment in the history of hip-hop. It's good stuff.
