My boy Ev Boogie teamed up with DJ Stretch Armstrong to create a collection of classic NYC nightlife flyers (hip-hop and otherwise) spanning from the late ’80s to late ’90s. I’ve been hearing about this book since its inception, and proud to see the cover finally hit the web. Pre-order HERE, it’s due out in early December.

Happy 4th of July!

Action Bronson is back with a special edition of Fuck, That’s Delicious, featuring an old high school friend of his who is in the truffle business. The two pals slide through three different NYC restaurants to sell truffles to the head chefs, who then turn around and prepare them three truffle-laced meals. Bon appetit.
