Flushing, Queens rapper Action Bronson finally has his own food show on Vice Eats. For those who don't know the rapper's history, he was a respected fire-flame gourmet chef in New York City before becoming a rapper. If you've heard any of his songs, you've probably noticed frequent verses about food.
According to VICE, the web series will "travel the world with Action and his motley crew of associates to check out the finest dives and dimes of the restaurant scene. From halal stands to Michelin star restaurants, Action and his rotating cast of dinner companions will dine in a wide range of remarkable sports to give us their honest opinions - both on and off the plate."
The debut episode featured Action and his cousin Big Body Bes going to eat a two-Michelin-star seafood restaurant Marea. They eat a six-course meal courtesy of chef Michael White.
The episode introduces the viewer to Action's eating habits ("I don't f**k with shrimp"), hairstyle choices ("Yo, gimme the Macklemore), smoking preferences ("This is the new age smoke. Joints are so passé) and desire to move upward with his housing arrangement (I'm getting out of her soon because I'm getting too much money to live in this place.)
