Boston, Massachussetts’ MC Esoteric contacted HipHopDX this afternoon to announce the release of Boston Pharoah, a limited edition album sold on tour and through his website. The emcee, best known for his role in veteran underground Hip Hop duo 7L & Esoteric, the Army of the Pharoahs member used this as an opportunity to work with his band-mates through the northeast region of the country.
Boston Pharoah will be limited to a production run of 500 copies. Each will be hand stamped and numbered by Esoteric himself, and available on upcoming tour dates, as well as on EsotericHipHop.com. The work features rhymes from Reef the Lost Cauze, Outerspace, Apathy, Blacastan, Motive, and more with production from 7L, Esoteric, Apathy, DC the Midi Alien, Durkin, and Teddy Roxpin.
Last year, 7L & Esoteric released 1212, which was included in HipHopDX’s “Top 25 Albums of 2010.”

AOTP is my favorite rap group.
Esoteric is the man. He makes me proud to be a hip hop head from Boston.
he ain’t boston, hes from the suburbs.
Aint he from Somerville or something, thats the city! Regardless of where he’s from, he’s been doing it for damn near 20 years, he gets props. I remember freestyle sessions on our roof deck on Mass Ave., so he was in the hood then! Big ups Seamus the new album is tight
eso you a herb always have been goto itt technical or some shit get a real job

Crazy that I’ll buy this just cause Apathy is on it.
He aint Boston? WHO THE FUCK IS REPPING BOSTON RIGHT NOW? Sammy Adams? Thats Boston’s problem you guys don’t see a good thing when you got it. Eso is the man, and I don’t care if he’s from East Bumfuck, MA he’s representing your city. You guys have had no one significant since Edo and you want to bitch and moan about how many miles away this dood is from the city limits? WHO GIVES A FUCK!
Slaine is from Boston and so REKS and they are arguably the best rappers in any region dick, eat a cum sandwich
7l and eso are by far the most notable hip-hop artists to come out of boston, right behind edo.g . Most of you guys are too young to understand how much they did/how big they were back in the late 90s and early 2000’s when it wasn’t kosher to be white and involved in hip-hop. If only the artists they came up with from Mass were as relevant as they were today, boston would be on top of the underground scene… 7l and eso have had remarkable careers.
Oh oh! Dont forget John Cena!
Guru…
I buy pretty much everything he puts out. Hopefully I’ll be able to get my hands on one of these.
