Christmas 2011 in NY didn’t come equipped with picturesque snow or fat old elf dudes committing reverse B&Es. No reindeer were spotted in the Vanderveer Projects as far as I heard and not a single shitless motherfucker I know got a lump of coal. Judging by imprecise poll, most cats in NY were either hold up grubbing on Chinese food with their friends or trying not to slap their distant relatives in their grills. It looked like the Christmas spirit skipped over the entire city.

That was until last night at the Highline Ballroom when the NY rap gods gifted us with a late Christmas present in the form of an Action Bronson & Mr. Muthafuckin’ eXquire show. It was some shit straight out of a Hallmark card. Jolly old Action Bronson with the red beard handing out weed to all the boys and girls. Mr. eXquire giving out snackboxes of fried chicken to lucky ladies and an array of hard beats and rhymes for all. At long last a traditional holiday scene to take the cold off of a New York winter. If only someone would’ve come through with some incense from the Fulton Mall it would’ve been just like when lil’ baby Jesus was born.

P.S. Yes. the Bronson tee is back in stock.
