Open Mike Eagle

Los Angeles-based Open Mike Eagle is celebrated for coining "art rap," a style characterized by its whip-smart, literate lyricism. Drawing inspiration from a diverse range of artists like Freestyle Fellowship, De La Soul, They Might Be Giants, and Pavement, his music often humorously reflects on everyday life and personal experiences. With acclaimed autobiographical releases such as "Brick Body Kids Still Daydream" and "Anime, Trauma and Divorce," he has solidified his place as a respected figure in both hip-hop and comedy.
