Action Bronson & The Special Victims Unit's "White Bronco" Produced By: Daringer from Forthcoming Album WHITE BRONCO (EMPIRE)
Last week, America's #1 Rap-Singer Action Bronson AKA Bam Bam Baklava AKA Mr. Wonderful released his first single, "White Bronco," since parting ways with long-time label, Atlantic Records. "White Bronco," the title track from Bronsoliño's forthcoming WHITE BRONCO album/mixtape on EMPIRE, was produced Griselda Records' in-house producer Daringer (@daringer_) and featuring The Special Victims Unit (@thespecialvictims) or The SVU, for short. It's all still a little mysterious, but it appears as though The SVU were/are Action Bronson's live backing band on VICELAND's The Untitled Action Bronson Show, billed as the network's "first food-oriented late night talk show" and as of 2018, was "the only culinary late night talk show on North American television." It appears as though The Special Victims Unit consists of @bae_bro AKA Paul Wilson on keyboards, @matt.carrillo AKA Young México on saxophone, @cyzongriffin on drums, @redwalberg AKA Fred/Red Walrus on percussion & guitar, and Musical Director & bassist @dominicmissana. @ActionBronson has previously "announced" a number of projects featuring The SVU on his Twitter page—the WHITE BRONCO Mixtape/Album or a once-rumored "SVU" Mixtape—but "White Bronco" is the first officially released material assisted by The SVU. Ever a Renaissance Man, Action Bronson hand painted the album artwork for WHITE BRONCO (the album) and recently sketched and designed the cover for "White Bronco" (the song) on his iPad.
Although, listening back, while writing this very article, it appears as though The Special Victims Unit were featured on Bronson's 2018 Spotify Singles EP, as he shouts-out "Young Matt.. Young Dom... Young Fred... Young Paul... Young Cyzon" within his impassioned cover of Rose Royce's "I'm Going Down" from Car Wash: Original Motion Picture Soundtrack, later, made famous by Mary J. Blige on her critically-acclaimed 1994 album, My Life. With a little journalistic Internet sleuthing, it appears as though Paul "Bae Bro" Wilson contributed keyboards to "River" on now-married rapping power-couple, Jean Grae & Quelle Chris' collaborative album, Everything's Fine, released by Mello Music Group earlier this year; Bronson Show Musical Director Dominic Missanna, actually, contributed to Action Bronson's F*ck, That's Delicious co-star and frequent collaborator The Alchemist's 2-part 2018 compilation album, French Blends Pts. 1 & 2 LP, as well as Gabriel Garzón-Montano's now-defunct band, Mokaad's 2012 mini-album, Booty; while Matt Carrillo & (F)red Walberg both, seemingly, have ties to Curren$y, French Montana, Harry Fraud, and The Weeknd. Complex theorizes WHITE BRONCO, whenever it happens to materialize, will feature long-rumored contributions from both Blue Chips 1-2 producers Party Supplies and one-time Traveling The Stars: Action Bronson & Friends Watch Ancient Aliens guest Knxwledge. @ActionBronson, however, recently proclaimed: "WHITE BRONCO, MY FIRST [INDIE] PROJECT IN A LONG TIME, WILL BE OUT SOON!!!!! MORE MUSIC, MORE MUSIC, MORE MUSIC WILL BE DROPPING!!! I GOT SO MUCH NEW HEAT FOR YOU TO LIVE TO. MY KNEE IS DOING GOOD, SO YOU KNOW I'LL BE IN A CITY NEAR YOU SOON. IT'S ME!"
