Television and film

Action Bronson starred in two television series which aired on the Viceland channel: the food travel show Fuck, That's Delicious , and a nightly food talk show, The Untitled Action Bronson Show . He also starred in the comedy documentary series Traveling the Stars: Action Bronson and Friends Watch 'Ancient Aliens' .

He has had cameo roles in the films The Irishman (2019), playing a coffin salesman, [39] and The King of Staten Island (2020). [40] Bronson also made an appearance for AEW's All Out on September 4, 2022, and wrestled his first professional wrestling match at Grand Slam, teaming with Hook to defeat Matt Menard and Angelo Parker which aired on September 23, 2022. [41]

Controversy

In March 2016, the Program Board of the George Washington University announced that Bronson would be the headlining performer for the university's yearly spring concert, "Spring Fling". Controversy soon erupted as Bronson's song "Consensual Rape" came to light, as well as statements Bronson made that were considered homophobic, transphobic, and misogynistic. [42] Student activist groups successfully pushed for the university to cancel the performance. [43] In April 2016, Bronson was similarly disinvited from the Trinity College Spring Weekend concert. [44]

Bronson responded in an open letter, claiming that his songs "depict a story" and "aren't meant to be anything but an artistic expression," condemned all forms of sexual violence, and offered an apology. [45]

Musical style

Influences

Action Bronson cites fellow American rappers Kool G Rap, Nas, Cam'ron, Mobb Deep, UGK and the Wu-Tang Clan, as major influences. [46] [47] Other artists include Michael Jackson, Carlos Santana, Queen as well as Albanian wedding singers. [48]

Rapping style

Bronson frequently raps about food in his songs. [49] [50] [51] He is also well known for his frequent, and often obscure, allusions to athletes and sports teams. Bronson's lyrics often make reference to sports in New York City but also touch on more obscure subjects such as professional wrestlers, [52] bodybuilders, figure skating and sports betting. [53] [54] [55]

Early in his career, Bronson gained recognition for lyrically and stylistically resembling fellow New York rapper Ghostface Killah of Wu-Tang Clan (with whom he collaborated, along with friend and fellow rapper Termanology, on a song called "Meteor Hammer", from the 2011 compilation album Legendary Weapons ). Ghostface Killah himself has admitted to confusing Bronson's rapping for his own. [56] In a 2011 interview with HipHopDX, Bronson was asked about how it was to be compared to the Wu-Tang rapper, and he responded with,

Yeah, I mean at the end of the day, it's all good because Ghostface Killah is one of the best rappers alive, so if I sound similar to the best rapper alive then that is fine. To me there is no comparison; he is a legend and I am a newcomer. If I would try and emulate with anyone it would be Kool G Rap, he is the person I look up to the most. I am not upset but at the end of the day I am my own person and no one can take that away from me. [57]

Personal life

Bronson has two children with a former girlfriend. [58] Bronson's current girlfriend gave birth to a son in November 2019. [59] [60]

In mid-2020, prompted by having reached a body weight of 400 pounds (180 kg), and having myriad associated health problems, as well as by the birth of his son, Bronson began a regimen of healthier eating as well as boxing and high-intensity interval training. As of December 2020 he had lost 127 pounds (58 kg). [59] He took up Brazilian jiu-jitsu in 2021, [61] training under Ryron Gracie. [62]
