Action Bronson and Viceland have had a tumultuous relationship. The Vice Media-owned television network commissioned two programs from Bronson: F*ck, That's Delicious and Traveling the Stars: Action Bronson and Friends Watch Ancient Aliens. While there's a sizable audience out there eager to consume this prime stoner content, Viceland has apparently been fumbling the shows' distribution.
On Wednesday (Feb. 5), Action Bronson put the network on blast in an aggravated tweet. "FUCK, THATS DELICIOUS! SEASON WHATEVER IT IS HAS BEEN READY AND THE MOTHERFUCKAS ARE HOLDING IT HOSTAGE," the rapper wrote. "MY CONTRACT IS OVER IN FULL IN MARCH AND I PROMISE IM GONNA SHOVE IT DOWN YOUR FUCKING THROATS EVERY CHANCE I GET. YOU’VE SABOTAGED MY SHOWS AT EVERY TURN. FTD 4 EVA."
This isn't the first time that Bronson has called out Viceland for failing to keep its side of the bargain. In 2018, he tweeted, "ILL TAKE MY TALENTS ELSEWHERE BECAUSE YOU SURE DON’T APPRECIATE WHAT I’VE DONE FOR YOU." Following this rant, Bronson must have temporarily patched things up with the network because, last June, it was announced that F*ck, That's Delicious would return. While Viceland expressed gratitude for having Bronson on its roster, he and his fans are still waiting on those new episodes.
On Tuesday, Action Bronson unveiled the dates for his upcoming North American tour with Meyhem Lauren (see below). In December, he released a collaborative EP with The Alchemist, Lamb Over Rice, and is currently prepping his next project, Only For Dolphins.
Dr. Umar Johnson Under Fire For Outrageous Kobe Bryant Death Conspiracy Theory
Not the time.
Dr. Umar Johnson is a Doctor of Clinical Psychology and Certified School Psychologist who is best known for spouting outrageous conspiracy theories. In one of his more well-known theories, he proposed that Meek Mill was released from prison in order for Bill Cosby to be convicted. His latest proposition, though, is rubbing people the wrong way, as it deals with the very recent death of Kobe Bryant. On Instagram live, Dr. Johnson explained that he believes that the helicopter crash that killed Kobe did not occur due to fog but rather was the intentional result of a dispute between Kobe and a pharmaceutical company over his signature nickname.
"They did not crash because of the fog—that was an expert pilot. Kobe was sabotaged, he explains in a video taken of the live. "Not to mention, Kobe Bryant was engaged in a legal battle with a big pharmaceutical company over the use of the name, 'Black Mamba.'" After repeating himself many times for dramatic effect, he emphasizes his point that the helicopter was crashed on purpose due to this conflict. "You understand me? Radar can see through the fog, thank you system (?). Radar can see through the fog. They didn't crash because of no damn fog and it wasn't no wind. The propeller was sabotaged."
Dr. Johnson also adds that the unnamed pharmaceutical company is "very powerful." According to Bossip, though, this company in question is not some kind of billion-dollar corporation, but actually is just a gas station brand of pills. While the theory seems pretty outlandish anyway, the fact that such a small company would go so far as to eliminate Kobe from the equation by having him killed is next level absurd. Twitter seems to agree, as the man is getting dragged by many users for his insensitivity and disrespect toward Kobe's tragic passing.
