I just caught this through a Nardwuar interview, and if you don't know who Nardwuar is, get to know. Action Bronson is from Flushing, Queens, New York and is getting a lot of heat at SXSW this year.
Hype aside, I've only go this to go on so far and I'm in. And this Riff Raff character is coming with a style I haven't seen since 'Hypercolour' and 'Rip N Tear'. I'm certain he's one of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles reincarnated.
There's no doubt this is all sort of silly; the spliffs hanging out Bronson's mouth, Riff Raff all over, the melodic hook, but hell, it works. And if you insist on sunscribing to all those hip hop cliches, you might as well fuck with them, right?
