I’m not going to lie: when I think hip-hop, 70’s and 80’s Japanese music isn’t the first thing that comes to mind…. but that’s what makes Esoteric’s new album “Esoteric vs. Japan” so interesting.
I’ve known that Eso could spit fire like an MC Magic Dragon since the first time I heard him rhyme. Over time I realized that he’s always pushing the envelope and this time the envelope was postmarked in Japan.
Esoteric produced the entire album using Japanese sounds and influnces including Godzilla, Rodan, Force Five, Ultraman and the Japanese Spiderman.
And in a world of trendy clothing stores selling CD’s for $17.99 and t-shirts for fifty bucks, you can get a signed copy of Esoteric vs Japan, a t-shirt, an instrumental CD and a mix cd for 25 bucks at Eso’s Space.
Did you know Esoteric is boys with Ironman?
