Action Bronson has announced his decision to leave Vice Media.
Vice acted as Bronson’s record label which also allowed him to network his television cooking show “Fuck, That’s Delicious.” The writing has been on the wall for a number of weeks following tweets sent out by Bronson, saying: “You weirdo motherfuckers are lucky to have ever been in my presence,” earlier this month before adding: “I’ll take my talents elsewhere because you sure don’t appreciate what I’ve done for you.”
Now, in a new interview with Complex show ‘Open Late With Peter Rosenberg’, Bronson has confirmed his departure citing contract issues and a feeling of being underpaid and undervalued. “It’s reached its time,” he said. “I need to be able to spread my wings musically. I have too many ideas for shows that work to be stagnated to doing one every fuckin’ two years. That’s not my thing.”
Watch the comments from around 6:30:

YOU WOULD THINK THEY WOULD USE THEIR PLATFORM TO PROMOTE THE SHOW ON THEIR CHANNEL PEOPLE ACTUALLY LIKE. I WAS ALSO ON THEIR RECORD LABEL THAT HAD ONE EMPLOYEE. I MUST BE OUT OF MY MIND.
