Read moreUnless you’ve been living under a rock for the past year, you would’ve heard about Bam Bam Bronson from Flushing, Queens. Reebok has always been about the culture of hip-hop and it was truly a pleasure to work with Action on “Blue Chips”. Anyone that knows Action or is a fan of his work knows his passion for food. With all the culinary references in his raps, it almost seems like Action should have taken the road to the culinary arts, and in this video, we find out that he is always a chef before he is a rapper. We took a trip through the city of Flushing with Action as he navigated us to the Flushing Queens Mall. When we sat down to have a meal with him in a Korean restaurant, he knew all the little details of how that specific cuisine is properly eaten — now that’s knowledge. When we shifted gears into the topic of “Blue Chips”, Action tells us how he got connected to Party Supplies through his manager and he immediately acknowledged the “genius” talents of Party Supplies. The undeniable chemistry between Action and Party Supplies eventually culminated into the birth of “Blue Chips.” Be sure to download the album here. Part 2 after the jump.
