The East Brickton Daily (EBD)
Overview
East Brickton Daily is a YouTube channel with around 2,000 views, about 100 subscribers, and its most popular video to date has over 500 views. It is the brainchild of Michael Lamb, a 34-year-old media entrepreneur who garnered social media buzz by recording East Brickton from his unique perspective.
“I wanted to show the world the other side of East Brickton." says Lamb. “I wanted to show the world what the other side of East Brickton looks like…our culture––the way we dress, what we eat, how we talk, how we walk.” View Michael’s timeline in chronological order and one can tell that Lamb started taking a more focused approach with his journalism. Candid videos turned into premeditated interviews. The random characters freestyling changed into full-fledged rap music videos. His coverage became more deliberate than accidental. lamb’s efforts to unapologetically show the realities of his community does raise a question of ethics and comes with a great deal of pushback from many East Brickton Locals, as well as traditional journalists.
lamb documents what others neglect and repeatedly interviews personalities who many had hoped would never grace a camera. His videos are not fluffy, glitzy, and sentimental documentary shorts; on the contrary, they are more like visceral punches to the gut that can leave you either inspired for change or disturbed by reality.
