New Esoteric Feature

Oct 7, 2009, 1:00pm JumpTheTurnstyle
New Esoteric Feature Hip-hop is faker than Vince McMahon's business plan and tan combined. Pussy-whipped MCs who sling Whoppers rhyme about bagging blow and smacking ho's; even cats who actually do poison their communities exaggerate their hood credentials. That can't be said for Boston producer/rapper Esoteric. By crate-digging and scripting double-barreled layman rhymes, the proud new dad and dog lover composes cuts about big-box stores and domestic normality that target the conflicted fool in all of us. Signs of Eso-lution first surfaced three years ago, when he and long-time confederate 7L (also of the Bladerunners) snapped free [...]

A Tour Blog Worth Reading???

Sep 1, 2009, 9:00am JumpTheTurnstyle
A Tour Blog Worth Reading??? After third-rate hip-hop mags that dudes print in their basements - and most rap blogs and liner notes - there's really nothing worse to read than tour blogs. Cats are either full-of-shit claiming that they party like Keith Richards, or they're straight boring. Oh yeah - there are also major label artists, who don't write their own dispatches (if you don't believe me just check their writing against their Twitter feeds. Cats are illiterate). Not necessarily the case with 7L and Esoteric , who are on the West Coast with Jedi Mind Tricks [...]

Esoteric Announces Date For Saving Seamus Ryan

Jul 21, 2009, 7:22pm JumpTheTurnstyle
Esoteric Announces Date For Saving Seamus Ryan One thing I never understood about Copywrite 's dis track against Esoteric back in the day was his making fun of Eso's government name, Seamus ( rebuttal track here ). I mean - it's homeboy's name, and, if he didn't like it, he would have changed it. Also - and this isn't against anyone else named Pete - but Seamus is much more original, and that's pretty damn important in this here rap game. Anyway...when Eso (and 7L) left Babygrande a few years ago, we were promised a theme album called [...]

Formless

Jul 5, 2009, 8:08pm The Cargo Culte
Formless Social theory and good tunes go so well together. One of my favorite writers in this vein is Georges Bataille [1897-1962] and the songs collected below are assembled in the spirit of his work. Mystic, pornographer, frustrated dialectician, art critic, political and economic visionary –Bataille's oeuvre is frighteningly bizarre and profound. Most people know of him for Story of the Eye , a classic pornographic novel. But in truth his best writing is social theory; in particular his ideas of the low, debasement, economic surplus, and useless expenditure seem as timely as ever. His later mystical writings about self-consciousness [...]

Esoteric Asks Fans for Doggy Style

Jun 17, 2009, 11:00am JumpTheTurnstyle
Over the course of his long and prosperous career, Boston favorite Esoteric has tapped many-a-demographic. From backpackers to young women to hipsters, he's wooed them all. Now he's working on the most unique niche of his career - animal lovers. He is one himself, so it only makes sense. The man loves his dog (no beastie), and if that sells a couple thousand more albums what the fuck. In celebration of Eso's dog, Logan , the two will be appearing on Animal Planet next month. And - here's the good news [...]

Audio: Brand New Esoteric // 1989

Jan 2, 2009, 1:26pm JumpTheTurnstyle
Audio: Brand New Esoteric // 1989 Remember when Michael Jordan tried his hand at Baseball? Or when Shaq tried acting /rapping / being a cop. Or when Jim Carey tried "serious roles". Most people are born talented with one skill, and one skill only. Attempting to break from these norms can be devastating to a fan base. You see, sometimes when rappers get bored with rapping the results are excruciatingly terrible (Kanye West's Entire New Album). And sometimes when rappers think they can get out of the vocal booth and into the studio to try production, a fatherly figure needs to really step in [...]

The Best Hip-Hop Albums of 2008…Because Chris Faraone Says So

Dec 30, 2008, 11:40pm JumpTheTurnstyle
The Best Hip-Hop Albums of 2008…Because Chris Faraone Says So For me, dropping an annual best discs list is like stripping myself naked and moseying through paintball warfare. There are lots of snipers on the prowl who are eager to dent my dome, and this gives them a ripe opportunity to blast me silly. Yet I'm here anyway – unbound from any and all generic "Top 10" constraints – offering my favorite twenty-or-so albums of 2008 (in alphabetical order). By rough estimate I checked anywhere from 200 to 250 projects this year, and, unlike cats who obsess over the depraved hip-hop landscape, I have [...]

A Look Back at Jedi Mind Tricks' Violent By Design

Nov 27, 2008, 10:59am salacious sound
A Look Back at Jedi Mind Tricks' Violent By Design Since the creation of Jedi Mind Tricks in 1996, producer Stoupe the Enemy of Man Kind has been dropping some of the sickest hip-hop beats ever to have graced the underground hip-hop community. In 2000, JMT released what is far and away their best album, Violent by Design. The CD was re-released in 2004 featuring a whopping 25 gritty tracks that blend dark and intense vocals with an absurd number of samples from popular movies and songs, to make a unique style that leaves the listener wanting more. Vocal contributions from underground powerhouses such as Esoteric, Planetary, and [...]
