Action Bronson - The Symbol
Artist: Action Bronson
Producer: The Alchemist
Album: Rare Chandeliers
Label: VICE Music
“F**kin’ throw up on the floor sh*t! Get the cleaning lady… my bad.” It’s not often I find myself wondering whether a song will live up to its opening ad-libs, but the quip that kicks off Action Bronson‘s latest feature is so perfect it kinda scared me. Turns out I didn’t have much to worry about. I’m not sure exactly what qualifies it as “throw up on the floor sh*t,” but mixtape lead single The Symbol is as eccentrically dope as anything we’ve heard from Bronson, with The Alchemist flipping a leisurely electric-blues riff as the Flushing, Queens rhymesayer interweaves surreal boasts and fragmentary street narrative. Rik Cordero directs the official visuals, crafting an over-the-top ‘70s-cinema pastiche in the tradition of the Beasties’ Sabotage. Bronson’s Rare Chandeliers tape as yet lacks a drop date, but fans can stay tuned for all the latest leading up to the project’s release.

Funny Video and Action Bronson NEVER lets you down lyrically. The Alchemist ripped it on the beat. This is a BANGER!

Liking the electric guitar on this. Action Bronson has a nice flow along with nice metaphors in this. He also has a dope vocabulary.

I have never been truly sold on Bronson, but this has to be some of his best all-around work to date. No?
