Now My Beard Look Like Uday & Qusay: Action Bronson - "Strictly 4 My Jeeps" (VICE Records)




Action Bronson's almost effortlessly able to cram a bunch of misplaced syllables into "Shit on my chest, shoot colors like a Care Bear / All year see me tan, hopping out the van... Eat steaks off a cold plate, stoned listening to Coldplay," a few of the introductory rapid-fire lines of "Strictly 4 My Jeeps" sounding like a high school English teacher on Speed; It's more or less, the lead single from an upcoming joint mixtape with rising Brooklyn producer, Harry Fraud that's been quite ingeniously dubbed Saab Stories. Noisey, sister site of Bronson's new-found major label home (VICE Records) premiered the Jason Goldwatch-directed music video mid-Monday afternoon, which was preceded by a collection of equally EPIC behind-the-scenes footage. Fraud has previously produced a number of scattered beats for Action Bronson including: "Jar of Drugs" (2011), "Muslim Wedding," "Mean," and tracks from Adrift/High Tide EP.


Goldwatch quite fittingly described "Strictly 4 My Jeeps"' overall feel as "a Rap video that makes fun of Rap videos, but it's still an amazing Rap video." Musical friends RiFF RAFF, Mayhem Lauren, Big Body Bes, and a handful of other shady characters managed to show up for the recent Queens-drenched shoot. We're talkin' about voluptuous [gross] women, Bronsolino's cartwheel/slam-dunk combo, some impressive weight-lifting, dripping wet hotties, a face cake, plenty of bumpin' & grindin', a tricked out gun metal Jeep, a rack of lamb feast, etc., if you somehow still need convincing. Last night, on the eve of his new video release, YUNG RICK PITINO (Bronson) dramatically Tweeted, "Finishing SAAAB STORIES WIT MY BROTHA @HarryFraud RIGHT NOW. THIS WILL BE OUT EARLY JUNE 10,000,000%, no matter what." While he's currently finishing up anywhere between 3-5 projects, Action Bronson is undoubtedly a force to be reckoned with when talking about modern day Hip-Hop titans; one who could easily out-rap your little brother's favourite "Ringtone Rapper" without really even trying!

[W]reckless, Topless American Youth: Lana del Rey - "Born 2 Die" (Britney Spears Birthday 30)

Lana del Rey [Lizzy Grant] effectively became 2011's "It Girl" with the release of her phenomenal debut single, "Video Games" (Stranger) . Like many struggling singer-songwriters, Grant has been signed, dropped, and significantly changed her public image since bursting onto the scene (2009). With that said, it can be assumed that Lana del Rey has collected just as many "haters" as she has avid supporters. To be perfectly honest, the only other artist I can think of that made this much commotion... garnered so much wide-spread buzz/hate and critical acclaim -- right out of the gates -- with just one track is Britney Spears . And maybe in this post- Mike musical era, that's the true synthesis of Pop Culture: Britney Lynn Spears . After months of repeated teasing and speculation, Lana del Rey 's major label debut, Born 2 Die will [finally] be released this coming Jan. 30-31, 2012. Pitchfork reports that it will feature "Off to The Ra

"Let Me Shine for You:" Lindsay Lohan for Playboy (Winter 2011-12 Leak)

Lindsay Lohan essentially embodies exactly "What NOT to Do In Hollywood :" Fame, fortune, success... sex, drugs & Rock "N" Roll . Within a fairly short period of time, Lohan somehow managed to obtain a plentiful helping of POWER @ a very young age. This gradual rise-downfall was captured on film; Between 1998-2010, she portrayed a wide array of roles across the silver screen in movies including: Mean Girls, Bobby , Herbie Fully Loaded , Georgia Rule, Machete , and Freaky Friday . Between rapid-paced film shoots, Lindsay Lohan also found time to record 2 Pop Rock albums for Casablanca , Speak (2004) and A Litter More Personal-Raw (2005). Needless to say, Lindsay Lohan has gotten roped up in a lot of troubles and woes with the law over the last 3-5 years... a vicious cycle of drugs, arrest, court, rehab, "daddy issues," jail time [Repeat]. That's the pure basics of it - But Google that shit for additional info, if necessary. Towards the end of
