Rising: Master Chef Action Bronson - Leftover-Based "Turkey Sliders" (FADER TV)

Action Bronson is without a doubt the most raw, captivating character to emerge from the music scene this year. You know what? - He very well may be the most interesting artist in ~~Hip-Hop~~ music within the last 5-10 years! A college and culinary school dropout, Bronson sounds like Ghostface Killah & Raekwon mashed together and thrown on top of Jazzy MF DOOM beats. All too recently, Action Bronson was a high-class Pro Chef. But he gave it all up (fame & fortune) for The Love of Hip-Hop; Although, still cooks as much as humanly possible in his free time while on tour. I must admit, I've been sleeping on this dude for the majority of 2011. Yet fear no more!: I just downloaded nearly 1/2 of Action Bronson's [back]catalog earlier this fine evening.

Action Bronson's most recent contribution to the vast, prosperous "goldmine" that is The Internet just so happens to be FADER TV's "At Home with Action Bronson." Essentially, it's an invite into Bronson's own Flushing, Queens apartment and kitchen 'fridge. Culinary skills are blasted, front and center as Thanksgiving leftovers are re-mixed and re-mastered, for all intensive purposes. Master Chef Action plates an innovative helping of Turkey Sliders: Corn muffin, turkey breasts in gravy, cold mac-N-cheese, corned beef cuts, and toasted marshmallows.
The latest output from Action Bronson, Well Done [1 of 5 pre-recorded albums] was produced by Statik Selektah and just released on Nov. 22nd. His previous effort... proper debut, Dr. Lecter (Tommy Mas) was one of 2011's most critically acclaimed albums. His limited discography also includes: Bon Appetit EP, The Program EP, "Holy Trinity," Bon Appetit... Bitch!!! (mixtape), and a miscellaneous collection of various Internet-released promo singles. Another ~~interview~~ music-food centric featurette of particular note was recently aired on "Last Call with Carson Daly" (NBC-10).

[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

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.

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
