Arian Asllani, known professionally as Action Bronson, was born on December 2, 1983, in Flushing, Queens, New York. He is an American rapper known for his contributions to the hip-hop genre. Bronson is of mixed heritage—his father is an Albanian Muslim immigrant, while his mother is an American Jewish native of New York City.
Before embarking on a music career, Bronson worked as a gourmet chef in New York City. He developed a strong reputation in the culinary world and even hosted an online cooking show titled Action in the Kitchen. A kitchen accident resulting in a broken leg eventually led him to pursue music full-time.
Bronson began his music career in earnest around 2008. Although rapping initially started as a hobby, it quickly turned into a professional passion. His distinctive lyrical style and culinary references helped set him apart in the hip-hop scene.
He caught the attention of major record labels and, in August 2012, he signed with Warner Bros. Records, marking a significant step in his musical career.
Between 2012 and 2013, Bronson released several influential mixtapes that gained him critical and fan acclaim. Notable among these were Rare Chandeliers (2012), a collaboration with producer The Alchemist, and Blue Chips (2013), created alongside producer Party Supplies. In 2013, he also released an extended play titled Saaab Stories, which served as his major-label debut.
On November 1, 2013, he followed up with Blue Chips 2, the second installment in the Blue Chips series. The project, hosted by DJ Funkmaster Flex and featuring production from Erick Sermon, Mike Will Made It, DJ Mustard, and Jahlil Beats, received generally positive reviews. Bronson mentioned in a Rolling Stone interview that he planned to include features from legendary hip-hop artists Kool G Rap and Mobb Deep.
In February 2014, Bronson toured internationally alongside Eminem, with stops in Australia, South Africa, and New Zealand. On May 6, 2014, he expanded his media presence by launching a food-themed web series sponsored by Vice Records, blending his two passions—music and culinary arts.
Bronson released the single "Easy Rider" on August 5, 2014, produced by Party Supplies. The music video, released on August 20, 2014, further fueled anticipation for his upcoming album. On January 20, 2015, he digitally released the track "Actin Crazy" and officially launched his debut studio album, Mr. Wonderful, on March 23, 2015.
