Action Bronson is a Queens-based rapper whose profile has been rising all year, for better or worse. For better, he put out the excellent mixtape Blue Chips with producer Party Supplies. For worse, he made fun of transsexuals on Twitter and it was pretty lame. You win some, you lose some? Hrmm. While we’re at it, let’s hit all the other Action Bronson talking points: sounds like Ghostface. Albanian. Culinary student. And, as FACT reports, he has just signed to the Warner Brothers subsidiary Vice.
While no details have been offered as to Bronson’s future releases on the label, the MC has released a statement that he will “never make candy cane bullshit music as long as [he lives].” Whoa, Action Bronson! What’s wrong with candy canes? Candy canes are pretty good, man. I eat them every Christmas. Disappointing to hear this primitive viewpoint on candy canes, Action Bronson.
