Book now: Action Bronson at The Ritz

Arian Arslani began life as a gourmet chef in the Big Apple but after a somewhat serendipitous accident where he broke his leg, he turned his hobby of rapping into a career and is now known by most as the lovable Action Bronson. His first studio album, Dr Lecter, produced the infectious and rhythmic Shiraz (listen below) – and since then he’s fathered a couple of other full-lengthers, as well as hosting his own online video show Fuck, That’s Delicious on Vice’s Munchies channel, which mashes together his beloved beats and bites. Spitting in his Queens-tongue, Action Bronson tours in support of his third album, Mr. Wonderful. He’s known to get down with the crowd during live shows (he literally walks through the audience while he’s performing) – so don’t expect anything less than a party for this.

Wed 16 Sep, The Ritz, Whitworth Street West, M1 5NQ, 7pm, £18.50 (on sale 9am Fri 3 Apr), www.seetickets.com
