Ghostface Killah Destroys Action Bronson - Daily Beast

Veteran Wu-Tang Clan wordsmith Ghostface Killah did just that yesterday, having finally responded to fellow rapper Action Bronson’s comments regarding Ghost’s latter-day career. Bronson has long been compared to Ghostface in voice and flow, something the younger rapper clearly began to bristle at during a recent appearance on ESPN’s SportsNation. Bronson appeared on the hit sports/pop culture show early last week, and was asked if being compared to Ghostface Killah has helped or hurt his career. Bronson has shared his thoughts on the issue several times. “To me, there is no comparison—he is a legend and I am a newcomer,” Bronson told HipHopDX in 2011, shortly after the release of his debut album, Dr. Lecter. In the end, I am not upset but at the end of the day I am my own person and no one can take that away from me. ”. Ghostface has also spoken about Bronson before, telling VladTV back in May that he’s mistaken Bronson’s voice for his own. “I thought he was me,” Ghost said at the time. Bronson sounded less reverential during the SportsNation appearance when the discussion shifted to the well-worn comparisons. People compare Coke and Pepsi,” he said. ” When co-host Max Kellerman mentioned that he bought some of Bronson’s music because he initially thought it was Ghost, Bronson seemed to take a shot at the veteran.
