With the release of his Mr. Wonderful album scheduled for tomorrow (March 24), Queens, New York rapper Action Bronson spoke with Complex TV about what fans can ask expect on his upcoming album.
The New York City wordsmith revealed that he isn’t nervous about the upcoming release of Mr. Wonderful, but did state that he’s become “antsy” about its pending release. He also compared the album to sex, explaining that listeners will go through a variety of emotions and feelings while listening to the project.
“It’s just another piece,” Action Bronson said. “It’s not a life’s work. It’s just important, you know? Everything is important to me, so nervous is nothing that—I don’t get nervous. Antsy? You could say antsy, but nervous? No. I’m gonna continue doing what I do. Because I like doing this. This is my art, my hobby, my job, my everything. This is what I do…Sex. [It] takes you on all types of emotions, all types of feelings. It hits you in different places. It’s like licking the back of a knee. You would think that it’s crazy, but it feels so good.”
In regards to the number of units Mr. Wonderful will move in its first week, Bronson shared that he isn’t too concerned about numbers, but added that there is “a certain number” that would depress him.

The rapper later spoke on attaining success outside of music and getting to where he is in the music industry without the assistance of anyone in the rap game.
“There’s a certain number that would probably depress me,” he said. “I can’t figure out what it is, but I’ll just know it when I see it. But I’m optimistic about things. I think things will work out. And it’s not always all about the first week, but once again that’s what a lot of people—they care about that. But I don’t. I’m already successful, man. I’ve already gained a lot of success from making $500 a week in a fuckin’ kitchen. You kidding me? I’m the definition of success that comes from that organically. I’ve made this myself. I didn’t know anybody in the rap game and the music game. Nothing. Nothing, no game. I didn’t know anyone in the game.”
