About this episode

Questlove reconnects with Open Mike Eagle to discuss his experiences and influences in the hip-hop scene.

Questlove reconnects with Open Mike Eagle, picking up a conversation that began on a 2025 episode of the show. As Mike reflects on his time with Project Blowed, the two artists-turned-podcast hosts dive into The Good Life Cafe and its influence on the West Coast Underground Hip-Hop scene, as well as touring on the left side of the country. This mini-episode is entertaining and insightful—and leaves plenty more of Mike’s story still to be told. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
