We were really waiting for this project to drop so when it did, instead of posting about it right away like a lot of other music sites (do they even take 5 minutes to listen to stuff before posting it? that’s another story I guess) we took our time to absorb it. Because we knew that is not your average mixtape: it’s a 16 track opus from Action Bronson, our favorite MC of the past year.

The record will most probably be in our top 10 this year and it proves that the straight up east-coast boom bap is not dead. The video “Hookers at the point” is definitely a nice addition to the project, a Rik Cordero production that brings back the rawness.

“Blue Chips is a project that allows me to give something back to all the people who have been supporting me during the last year. Party Supplies and myself linked up in the late fall and over the span of a few weeks created this project entirely off the cuff. We didn’t over think it, we just had fun making music with no pressures of making a “hit song”, clearing of samples or sales expectations.” – Action Bronson
