Action "Bam Bam" Bronson

Bam Bam

It's literally the end of 2013 and if you haven't heard of this guy then you've been under a rock for too long. This is Action Bronson. He's from Flushing, Queens, New York. He's had a big ass red beard. He's a chef, comedian and a rapper. I first heard Action earlier this year from his Rare Chandeliers mixtape. He hooked up with Alchemist for the beats. However, I was astonished that this white dude is THAT nice! He has the best hype man who talks so much sh*t. It's hilarious. My boyfriend said that he sounds like Ghostface Killah. I never really listened to GhostFace, so I had to look up one of his songs and compare. Action really does have a similar style because like Ghostface, he's has a quick delivery of bars, with a heavy New York accent jumping from one situation to another all on the same song. ( FYI, he made a PSA on his Ron Simmons track saying "Don't ever say my fucking music sound like Ghost shit!" Sorry Bam Bam :p) It's really enjoyable to listen to him because he's so vivid with the stories he tells. Furthermore, his voice alone just attracts you to listen to the story. His voice makes you listen to the lyrics and the beats just compliments the story he's telling. He can really paint a picture for you over beats. On his mixtape Blue Chips, Thug Story 2012 tells the story of his love for someone who held him down but somehow she went one way and it seems like she turned into a crack-head prostitute. He went another way and pursued his rapping. Its stories like similar to that, that makes you want to wait for the next track. 
In addition to his story telling, he loves to throw a few bars in about food. Put it like this, Pusha T is always referencing drugs; Action is always referencing food. It's his thing. BUT don't get it twisted, despite that he's still a raw a$$ rapper. 
Action Bronson is truly a New York rapper. I say this because he sounds like the NY rapper from the 90's. The accent is heavy and he has the New York attitude. His beats aren't typical Lex Luger or Mike Will Made It type beats. He seems to pick more authentic type beats with real instruments. Nothing too electronic. Yet, the beats are still catchy and your face will twist up when you hear them. 
His mixtape covers are dope as well. He's always depicting some type of action on the covers. It really makes you want to know what they hype is all about. In my opinion, as a consumer, I think it's very important to have an interesting cover because it attracts the eyes of a potential listener and even if you didn't listen to it you still think about what’s on the tape. If you're not into real rap then disregard this post.

Thanks :)
