So I know I said I was gonna review Yeezus, but everyone already has anyways, and I feel like Action Brossolino hasn't gotten enough time on here at all for how many plays he gets on my ipod. So I figued I'd start with some new shit, in the EP he just dropped with major producer Harry Fraud.1. 72 Virgins (Feat. Big Body Bes)
This shit is super dope, as Bronson flows like water over the same kind of beat he usually does, a guitar-inspired beckground. I'm not sure what Big Body Bes is as an artist, as I'm oretty sure he doesn'y rap, so I guess he's a spoken word artist that just says "WE WILIN".
2. Triple Backflip
Deffinitely not feeling this beat. You know who else could flow over this? Beyonce. Shit work, Harry. I am feeling Bronson's work on this one though, he dropped some pretty funny lines.
3. No Time
Another beat I'm not feeling. Overall this track's just boring, and while Bronson's flow doesn't usually bother me, coupled with an overly repetitive beat it doesn't work.
4. The Rockers (Feat. King Pot Rapper)
I'm feelin this beat, and Bronson sounds awesome on it. Wiz Khalifa is also impressive on here, as he's come a long way since Black & Yellow. Overall weed-rappers seem to be getting better, even Mac Miller is putting on big boy pants on Watching Movies With The Sound Off, although I could just be saying that because of his OF ties.
5. Strictly For My Jeeps
I've heard this one before, and it's a total banger. Like this is some drive down the street waving baseball bats with nails in them through the Bronx with Raff Raff on the roof shit. Speaking of Riff, he made a cameo in the video for this. Not much more to say abouth this one, best track on the EP, I'm calling it right now.
6. Alligator
This is a really good track, almost made me eat my words about Strictly For My Jeeps. Also much longer than normal for an Action Bronson song, clocking in at about 5 minutes. Bronson goes fully in on it to, and the beat doesn;t make me wanna kill myself, so this one was good too.
7. Seven Series Triplets (Feat. Prodigy & Raekwon)
Probably one of the coolest beats on the prject, but I don;t know why guys like Prodigy and Raekwon are so hyped. In my opinion they're just not that great. I mean, they aren't bad, but Bronson is by far the highlight of the track, although Prodigy's verse is growing on me.
Rating: 7.5/10
Best Tracks: Strictly For My Jeeps, Alligator, Seven Series Triplets
Overall, a very solid EP. I could've done without some of the boring beats by Harry Fraud, but Bronsom really held his own on here, and was awesome on a couple tracks. Blue Chips is by far my favorite Bronson project, but I don't know if i'll do a review of it, we'll see.
