Open Mike Eagle has never been shy about getting personal with his music. After emerging from LA's Project Blowed collective, the rapper/producer released his first solo album in 2010 and has been dropping projects at a steady clip ever since. With a comedic wit and quirky eclectic nature to his songs, Mike has also been equally proficient in the worlds of comedy and television. He co-created comedy and music showcase 'The New Negroes,' first as a live event and later as a show for Comedy Central, which we discuss in this episode.
He's also no stranger to podcasts – from his own Secret Skin podcast, as well as 'What Had Happened Was,' his acclaimed interview series with which has featured interviews with Prince Paul, El-P, Dante Ross, and Questlove, all on his own Stony Island Audio podcast network. Here are the songs that we dive into in this episode:
"Sounds Like Rap" (Thirsty Fish, 'Watergate,' 2011)
"Art Rap Party" ('Unapologetic Art Rap', 2010)
"Single Ghosts" ('What Happens When I Try To Relax', 2018)
"Woke As Me" feat Phonte Coleman ('The New Negroes' Season 1 Soundtrack, 2019)
"Leave People Alone" ('Hella Personal Film Festival', 2016)
"Overland" (Cavanaugh, 'Time and Materials', 2015)
"Raps for When It's Just You and the Abyss" ('A Special Episode', 2015)
