Ajgod is certainly putting on for NorCal. Amid the rise of acts such as Blueface, 03 Greedo, and Shoreline Mafia, one would think that Los Angeles holds all the talent California has to offer. Reason why a young Oakland spitter is bound to show us otherwise. With only eight tracks, Ajgod proves there is an “E.S.O.Teric” side of the Golden State that must be acknowledged. Brandishing elements of the hyphy, Bay Area sound, “E.S.O.Teric” is an undoubtable contender for Californian classic status. Its bounce, energy and groove, complimented by Ajgod’s powerful delivery and flows, give the project this vitality that can not be denied. From the opening banger “Coming Home”, all the way to the closer, “Departure”, “E.S.O.Teric” maintains a level of energy only The Bay can provide. If you needed to be reminded of NorCal’s potential, give Ajgod’s latest a try.
