I would definitely call Action Bronson one of my favorite rappers. The guy is entertaining, hilarious, and a great MC. He has been making noise in the underground for a while now, getting guest features on numerous albums and releasing projects with producers Party Supplies, The Alchemist, and Statik Selektah.. He keeps up this trend with SAAB Stories, a new mixtape completely produced by Harry Fraud. I have yet to really be disappointed with anything Bronson has done so far, so will his newest mixtape change that?
72 Virgins is the first track, and I love it. This beat is layered and the guitars sound amazing. Bronson comes with his usual great verses, and Big Body Bes does a pretty funny interlude. Great track to start this off. Triple Backflip, the second track, has a beautiful beat. It is nice, relaxed, and definitely smooth. Bronson sounds great on this, flowing really well here. Action Bronson continues to be a hilarious lyricist on his songs. The next one, No Time comes in with this heavy boom-bap beat. It hits hard and my head started bopping immediately. The hook is so catchy and Bronson delivers more nice verses here. This song is fun and I love Bronson on these types of beats.
The Rockers is the next song here, and this is yet another nice beat from Harry Fraud. Bronson's flow is really solid here and I enjoyed his verse. This song actually features Wiz Khalifa and I didn't mind him at all. Wiz has a really good verse and rides the beat nicely. The next track, Strictly 4 My Jeeps, is just such a banger. The beat hits so hard and just sounds sick. Bronson kills the hook and I liked his short verses. The next track, Alligator, had possibly my favorite beat on the tape so far. Bronson once again provides a great hook, which he has done a great job doing on this tape. Before the third verse, Harry Fraud changes the beat completely to a much slower, more atmospheric one. This was not nearly as good as the one before, but it keeps the song interesting. The closer, Seven Series Triplets, featured a beat just made to spit over which develops nicely throughout the verses. Bronson delivers a very good verse to start this off. Prodigy then comes in and his voice sounds really good over the beat, but I don't really like his flow. His voice, though, is enough for the verse to be good. Raekwon, as always, sounds great. his raspy voice sounds awesome and his flow was very solid. He probably had my favorite verse on the song and ends the tape perfectly.
