Art rap è il termine/genere musicale che nasce come risposta a quello che sul finire del primo decennio dei duemila stava succedendo nel mainstream e Open Mike Eagle è il padre fondatore. Un genere che ha un approccio personale, inventivo e riflessivo e che ha alla base le esperienze personali dei singoli artisti, ognuno con il suo punto di vista e la propria storia, piuttosto che la narrazione canonica del rap che ottiene passaggi in radio. Difficile approcciare Open Mike Eagle senza una bella dose di lavoro su testi e tematiche affrontate, un lavoro che viene decisamente ripagato con questo geniale artista.

1. Fuck The Police – J Dilla

L’uomo che, nei rari momenti di vanto, per sua stessa ammissione, non ha bisogno di playlist si prende l’intera puntata di Fuoco Amico, con una piccola digressione in apertura. Pochi altri produttori / MC possono passare dall'umorismo adolescenziale all'intensa riflessione personale, dalle rime hardcore alla seria sperimentazione e dare un senso a tutto. Quelle Chris è decisamente uno di questi, il rapper del cuore per quanto mi riguarda. In questa ora cercherò di rendere giustizia a un vasto catalogo fatto di tematiche e suoni che mai si ripetono da un album all’altro rendendo Quelle uno degli artisti (il più se chiedete a me) più interessanti dell’intero panorama del mondo Hip-Hop.
