Watch: Action Bronson- “The Symbol” Trailer

YouTube Preview Image

Normally, I find video trailers to be the most pointless thing.
It’s like watching an advertisement for a commercial.
But this Action Bronson trailer that Noisey just sent out for Bronson’s song “The Symbol” off his upcoming mixtape Rare Chandeliers is the exception to that rule as it has a 70’s exploitation movie vibe. The clip is directed by Rik Codero.

The actual video will drop Monday.

Live Review: Action Bronson In Columbus, Ohio 10/12/12

Ok. let me give my little recap:  Earlier that day I went to a wedding also worked and it was my mom’s bday. So I got to the venue around midnight wanting to actually to enjoy myself for change. When I was standing out front Action Bronson and the promoter Schoolboy walked by. Bronson had his hood up and was wearing all black. He looked like a pro-boxer or someshit.

After getting in the venue, I hit up the bar. After I got my drink,  I saw Bronson already on stage pouring out Goose or Ciroc. Whatever the case;  he was breaking the crowd off with some decent Vodka. It was not well rubbing alcohol bullshit.   You can see him pouring up top. My picture is blurry. I am not a good photographer and Action Bronson is quick bastard so for someone like me to try to keep hold is NOT happening.
