Action Bronson Tells Apple Music About Recently Getting Arrested In France…
Action Bronson: I went on vacation for 10 days. In Paris, I got locked up with my fucking driver. I was going to get pastries. My family were leaving. And I take him, we go nine in the morning to my man Bertrand's spot Tapestry. He had a box waiting for me. Fucking, we get caught at the light. There's two cops over there. They're talking to the driver. The driver's wearing a suit and he has some sort of pin, and they questioned him about the pin. And apparently the pin is like, you work for the president. And they're not having it because the Olympics are coming. So they pull them out, they question him. They arrested him for impersonating a police officer. They bring me in. They refuse to speak English, but they still leave me with the phone. I'm just like, "Yo, bro, I'm just trying to get to my family."
Zane Lowe: I got my pastries.
Action Bronson: I didn't get the pastries yet. So three hours. My man has to make the phone call. Somehow I text him, he calls them. He's like, "Yo," he calls the precinct. "He has the key to the city in Lyon, the mayor. This is going to cause a scandal, blah, blah, blah." Somehow they fucking let me out. Three hours later I got the pastries, but my family had already left, so I was very angry. But there was no consolation except the pastry. I was just fucking pissed. I'm just saying, that's how I started the tour.
Action Bronson Talks To Apple Music About What Changed To Make Him Start Prioritizing His Health…
It was actually shame. It was a shame that I had let myself get there, because I've always been an athlete. I was like, "What the fuck is going on? What is this?" Wearing fucking mumu shirts. I still like a good comfortable shirt, but my Lord, I was like, "What is this?" And having a brand new baby, you want to be around. I want to be around forever.
Action Bronson Tells Apple Music The Story About How Mel Gibson Gave Him Covid…
Zane Lowe: Mel Gibson did give you COVID.
Action Bronson: That's a fact. I mean, I don't like to tell this story, but I will. That bastard gave it to me for sure. It was at UFC, McConor Gregory. I mean, pah, McConor Gregory... Conor McGregor and fucking Dustin Poirier part three. This was the COVID days. He turned around, we were the only ones there at the prelims. There was no one there. It was just me and him. He turned, I was sat here. He sat in front. He turned around and kept saying shit to me in my face, like commenting on the punch and commenting on the kick. And then everyone got it. Me and four other guys got it.
Action Bronson Tells Apple Music About His Favorite Olympics Moment…
Action Bronson: Probably my favorite moment was Vince over the Frenchman. Nuts on the chin, nuts on the head. His nuts went from here to there.
Eddie Francis: Yeah. Yeah. Kevin Garnett lost his mind, Gary Payton. The greatest dunk ever.
Action Bronson: Man, they showed that on Sports Center 7 million times. Unbelievable.
Eddie Francis: I'm like two steps too. Wasn't he like a super running jump? It was like easy. Greatest dunk ever. Love you, Vince.
Action Bronson: Nah, nah. It was like he was at the park. No, Vince is one of the most magnificent human beings that's ever lived. It's unreal, that type of athleticism and grace and artistry.
Action Bronson Talks To Apple Music About His Painting And Where The Inspiration Comes From…
I'm in the studio. I'm listening to some MMA podcast or some shit talking about the upcoming fights, analysing, breaking down foresight. I'm working out. I have elbow braces on. I'm sweating. I look at the painting and I'm like, "Fuck this. Give me the thing real quick," and I just start doing something, then hit a set, do it again. Sometimes, the moments are whenever. I have to wake up in the middle of the night and just go. Can't say anything. I just go. There's something in my mind, "I have to do a skull," and I just do a skull, and then I go home. Because sometimes, I'm thinking about it so much it has to come out. Only the things that I'm able to, that I could really profess in the way I want.
Action Bronson Talks To Apple Music About His “Beef” With David Schwimmer And Why He Name Drops Him On The New Album…
Zane Lowe: What was with the David Schwimmer line? That grabbed me for some reason.
Action Bronson: I don't know, man.
Zane Lowe: Just don't like him?
Action Bronson: I'm not mad at him.
Zane Lowe: You sit with no fucking friends. I didn't understand. It seems like everyone would be friends with that guy.
Action Bronson: I wanted to let you know. Him, we're not friends. And I also saw him in London in this random shawarma spot, and there was a picture of him. Apparently they did his wedding and I had a beef with him then too.
Zane Lowe: Why?
Action Bronson: Just when I saw the picture, it didn't sit well. It just didn't. So since that's what I think I added the line after it didn't sit well with me.
Action Bronson Tells Apple Music Why It Was Time To Make This New Record…
I don't know. I mean, it's not that long and I understand it took a long time because I'm a family man. Having two children and being daddy and doing all these other things and fucking working on all these other things that I do, and creating music. It's not easy. So it happened over the course of maybe a year and a half, and it just magically came together for me. I don't know. I started putting things together one by one in my way and just fucking by the seat of my underwear. Like always. Just finished it off.
Action Bronson Tells Apple Music About What He’s Learned About Fatherhood…
You've just got to enjoy every single moment, honestly. You've got to enjoy every moment. And like you said, it goes fast, but you have to let kids be them, just let them be them. I'm still thinking in their mentality. I remember being, fucking, a little bastard. You know? I remember being a little bastard. You've got to let them be them and guide them slightly.
