Open Mike Eagle, the Former Obfuscating Mike Eagle

Issues of depression and anxiety have been present in Open Mike
Eagle's raps for a long time. His most played track on Spotify is
"Ziggy Starfish (Anxiety Raps)" and it's from 2015. Mike has
always been more prone to self-effacement and worry than to the
boasting and swagger you might find in other hip-hop artists. But
after a year that saw him lose his tv show, his touring income,
his marriage, and his home, Mike became more open than ever
before and hit record on all of it. His album, Anime, Trauma
and Divorce, touches on his experiences and the psychological
narratives of his life.
