action bronson

i lol'd

i mean it's totally harmless but if someone disagrees with you about rap on a rap thread and their go-to is "GO LISTEN TO GREEN DAY DOOD" you'd probably be thrilled too you must admit

i think part of the thing w/ the NO REALLY, HE DOESN'T SOUND LIKE GHOSTFACE (more on this from me in the future) is that maybe if you just listen to him for a year it kinda wears off? cuz when i heard 'dr lecter' i was all "hahahah, no. really?" but anyway this album is just much better

the thing to me is that more than the voice his writing seems so clearly, stiflingly influenced by ghostface

some dude, this thread is basically gonna be a goon locker room, no one is gonna see this shit.

certainly not the sub-onion a/v club saddos in the community thread, and the real tears they cry nightly on their muppet bedsheets

re his size, he's really let himself go in the past, like, year or so

in these videos from a few years back he's not anywhere near obese https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pnyyficfliM

"THIS EPISODE IS ONLY AN A+, DAN HARMON YOU ARE CAPABLE OF A++ WORK"

fart

the thing to me is that more than the voice his writing seems so clearly, stiflingly influenced by ghostface

idk i think he's much more a rapid fire punchline dude than ghost

honestly i think his absurdism is more in the lineage of, like, cam'ron than ghost, but he sounds EXACTLY like ghost so it's kinda hard to get that out of your head

whiney i'm gonna strangle you to death

he literally says "don't compare me to ghost's shit" on the tape, man. did you not get that far?

haha this thread is gr8 and i don't really know who this dude is

the one thing i think is interesting is that he basically has that hyper punchline feel of 90s whiteboy Copywrite/High&Mighty shit, but with that Cam'rom/Ghost attitude of "I really don't care if you're catching the jokes or not"

doesn't every rapper say "don't compare me to [rapper everyone compares me to]"? why follow their bullshit rules?

some dude, if you dont like this, i dont know what

i haven't listened to all of it, i'm not hatin hatin just fuckin around

go listen to it its gr8

k

i find this dude likeable but i have a lot of trouble imagining this record is as good as everyone is saying rt now. his earlier stuff was already overrated as it was

the production also sounds a lot like the kind of beats ghostface gets

love this guy.

I like action bronson

would smash

Musically this bores me to death

I really don't think this is that different from Dr. Lecter. It's fine but i'm much more interested in hearing the Harry Fraud collab

Watched last week's ep just to bump up the number on Hulu. Jim Rash really does kill every line he has. I agree with something TVDW wrote, that the only false/off note in the ep was Andre suddenly switching up his attitude at the rehearsal.

Drunk Britta is awesome.

obsession is an ugly thing

Community is the least #based show on tv

Loving this song by action bronson, kind of a ghost face feel.

he sounds like ghostface but people overvalue originality anyways. it's like you had to have a certain amount of a good thing, now you have that twice that amount and you're complaining about it?

w/some dude and D-40 on this dude in general. haven't heard the new one tho

i am ambivalent

he's likable for sure but hard to get excited about

a ghost dad feel

ghost mouthfeel

is this guy good

not really

good riddance

no he's good! really! it's just well he's gotten a bit more notice than maybe is necessary, like you should judge him more on the criteria of "random NYC dudes that get posted on nahright.com but are really good considering"

'Blue Chips' is all I've heard and I think it's pretty great.

MC Action Bronson, who through little fault of his own, sounds more or less exactly like Ghostface Killah.

oh come on

you think he's putting it on?

ghostfaceface

stylistic choices are choices, they don't happen by accident

that is his actual voice though

yeah and there are a lot of things he could do with that voice that would not sound like Ghostface. He could rap like Too $hort, for example.

heard a couple tracks last year that i didn't much like, and just listened to "blue chips" with similar results. so what do i need to hear to understand? i mean, he's obviously talented, a great writer, but from what i've heard, i just don't like his energy & voice. doesn't appeal to me as pop music. and i like ghostface.

doesn't appeal to me as pop music.

maybe there's your answer?

man i almost made a thread about this guy last year but then realized random nyc punchline rap dudes haven't been popular on ilx in years. what happened?

havent heard the new record yet but i guess i ought to now

def hilarious. also i can't imagine the ghost beef going any differently, bronson really only had one option i mean come on

Don't see this as a censorship thing? Like the government isn't prohibiting action bronson from anything. private individuals are pressuring a commercial organization, they'll can bronson's show if they feel the reputational risk is too hugh/outweighs the commercial benefit of him performing

sportscenter guys baiting bronson into dissing ghost when he clearly had no interest in doing so was masterful, as were their faux shocked reaction when he followed through

I think it's really funny that Viceland markets themselves as tv for Millennials, but only Millennials would ban their star attraction from campus
