Look at that face. That’s the face of a 300 pound outlaw on a half dozen tabs, on his way to find his beloved guitar with the boys in blue behind him. That’s Action Bronson, diving all the way into his ridiculous, perfectly over-seasoned tastes for the zany, extreme, nasty, and legendary. “Easy Rider” plays almost like a sequel, or alternate universe version of “The Symbol,” which is probably the Queens MC’s other best video, but does so without feeling just like another Action Bronson affair. Every moment feels fresh, and freshly ripped from some lost, absurd B movie, and the amount of fun that the big lug had making this video just seeps through.
Side note: it’s a strange pair, but it’s looking like a toss up between this and “Jazz” for video of the year so far.
