In the past 5 years, Mike has shifted his artistic efforts toward print and advertising. He is probably best known for his work on the popular Ecko ad campaign, which ran between 2000-2003. The ads featured hip-hop artists such as Method Man and DMX, standing next to Mike's paintings.
In 2003 Mike was contacted by Chicago advertising agency, Burrell Communications and featured in a Coca-Cola commercial. Last year Kanye West asked Mike to create a painting for his "Jesus Walks" video. The piece was shown at the end of the video. Recently, he has done work for several books and magazines and illustrated a cover for an EA Sports videogame.
Last year INFINITI MOTORS featured Mike in their 2007 "Infiniti In Black" campaign.
