Open Mike Eagle has spent much of
the last decade developing
support networks that have
enabled his modest success as an
independent rapper. In 2019, it
all fell apart. Hellfyre Club,
the collaborative group featuring
Eagle, Busdriver, milo, and
Nocando, disintegrated amid
business disputes. Comedy Central
declined to renew The New
Negroes, the show Eagle launched
with comedian Baron Vaughn. And
Eagle and his wife ended their
marriage of 14 years, disrupting
his identity as a husband and
father.
Eagle isn't cagey about the
inspiration for his latest LP
Anime, Trauma, and Divorce it's
right there in the title. Before
Eagle's traumatic 2019, he'd
already planned an anime-focused
LP that would explore the role of
fictional power fantasies in the
lives of marginalized people. His
theory that Black people,
inheritors of generational
trauma, need anime the most,
suggests its fanciful depictions
of power and heroism provide an
escape from Black America's grim
realities. After his own series
of defeats, the theory became
practice: he needed the escape,
too. While his raps are often set
in fantastical universes sprung
from his imagination, the subject
matter here is chillingly mundane
and relatable. He finds himself
single and middle-aged,
questioning the fly art rap
aesthetic he spent much of his
adult life crafting, in a
deteriorating dad bod that just
doesn't seem that funny anymore.
Eagle's fantasies are heavily
influenced by two anime in
particular: Neon Genesis
Evangelion, a morose mecha-anime
set in a post-apocalyptic society
that forces trauma upon children
in order to save the world, and
JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, a
multi-generational saga featuring
a fashion-forward family that
uses super-powered manifestations
of energy called Stands to fight
evil beings. I'm a Joestar
(Black Power Fantasy) posits
Eagle as a member of the series'
aforementioned family, imagining
his Stand with a glow like
Sho'nuff in The Last Dragon. On
Headass (Idiot Shinji), he
identifies with Evangelion's teen
protagonist, whose epically awful
timing often endangers humanity.
Sweatpants Spiderman nods to
the alternate-universe Peter
Parker that mentors Miles Morales
in Spider-Man: Into the Spider-
Verse. That Spider-Man lost Mary
Jane and fell into a depressive
spiral, packing pizza slices onto
his waistline and crying alone in
the shower before being
transported across the multiverse
to teach Morales how to be
Spider-Man. The song frankly
assesses Eagle's post-divorce
status, re-evaluating his diet,
art, and finances and feeling
every one of his 39 years.
