Chicago-born, Los Angeles-based wordsmith Open Mike Eagle is back with new heat. Today, he's sharing "Bucciariati," a razor-sharp collaboration with Kari Faux on the hook (as well as some bars of her own on the back-end). As for the title, it's presumably a shoutout to infamous anime mobster Bruno Bucciarati of JoJo's Bizarre Adventure. The track will appear on Eagle's forthcoming album Anime, Trauma and Divorce, due out October 16 via his own AutoReverse Records.
"Before the world went to shit I was already in the middle of a few personal crisis'," Eagle wrote in a press release. "Shit had gone haywire personally and professionally and my therapist had to remind me that I have an outlet to process some of my shit in rap music. So I made a bunch of painful rap songs and Jacknife Lee was kind enough to help me make good music out of them. Maybe it can help other people too. It probably won't but maybe."
