Eight Gigs: Action Bronson
Mon., April 6, 7 p.m., Ace of Spades, $25
Not every rapper can boast that he's also a gourmet chef. Before being known as a “foodie rapper,” Action Bronson hosted his own online cooking show called Action in the Kitchen. After breaking his leg in an accident, the chef, who had been dabbling in hip-hop, became a full-time rapper. His easy, self-deprecating style and humorous, well-produced videos and overall likability have made him a rapper on the rise. Now he has a new online cooking show called Fuck, That's Delicious, which is a humorous, well-produced show. However, he's deadly serious when it comes to exploring regional cuisine. What's next—a rapper with a cookbook? 1417 R Street, www.actionbronson.com.
