Brick Body Kids Still Daydream?

Description

Open Mike Eagles newest album is a masterpiece mural drawn in sidewalk chalk. Entitled Brick Body Kids Still Daydream, the album addresses gentrification, culture and family. A multi-talented performer, the comedian, artist and rapper approaches music with a postmodern approach, making the audience look at themselves through the lens of his art. Open Mike Eagles last solo album release, 2014s Dark Comedy was included on SPIN and Rolling Stones Best Rap Albums of 2014 list and was called one of the most compelling indie-rap listens of the year by Pitchfork. In 2016 he released Hella Personal Film Festival with Paul White (Charli XCX, Danny Brown). The art rap MC, film/TV writer, podcast host and comedian polymath has also appeared on Marc Marons WTF podcast and the Eric Andre Show, and has performed with Thundercat and Flying Lotus on Hannibal Buresss Comedy Central series.
