Jonah Bromwich steers the whip with one arm like Herman of Herman’s Military Antiques.Īction Bronson is so consistent that it can be tough to figure out what makes his two best projects to date, Blue Chips and now Blue Chips 2, qualitatively better than other recent work. Saab Stories was underrated, and some feel that Rare Chandeliers was on par with the original Blue Chips. But for many, if not most of us, the two BC’s reign supreme. Now it’s just a question of figuring out why. Of course, much of the credit can be placed at the feet of Party Supplies whose penchant for thumbing through low-budget samples with expensive taste could not be better suited to Bronson’s Cam’ron-2.0 flights of fancy. The songs that are attracting the most attention on Blue Chips 2: “Through the Eyes of a G,” Contemporary Man,” “Twin Peugots,” “9.24.13,” and “Amadu Diablo,” just to name a few, wouldn’t have half the appeal if they were being rapped over the more standard boom-bap that Bronson otherwise favors.
