Video: Open Mike Eagle & Paul White – Smiling

With his new tour kicking off in Brooklyn tonight, Open Mike Eagle gets things started with a video for “Smiling (Quicky Race Doc)” — a highlight from his and UK producer Paul White’s Hella Personal Film Festival album.

Based on the premise that melanin lacking individuals only smile when the “black man” is on stage, the talented DMV rhymer battles mean mug after mean mug as he drifts through the city’s landscape.
