Tom Hardy records music under the alias Frankie Pulitzer, and the actor has just dropped a collaborative rap album that is absolutely packed with movie references. It includes lyrics about Martin Scorsese movies, Spider-Man, Doctor Doom, Stephen King, and even a Shakespearean monologue spoken in his Bane voice. It’s…something.
Czarface Meets Frankie Pulitzer
The album, titled Czarface Meets Frankie Pulitzer, finds Hardy joining forces with underground rap group Czarface, which consists of duo 7L & Esoteric and Wu-Tang Clan’s Inspectah Deck. Busta Rhymes, Method Man, and more also guest on the album.
In Raw Forever, Hardy packs in the pop-culture references
I’m Bringing Out the Dead like a paramedic out the Cage, directed by Marty
Frank Pierce the gang’s here welcome to the party
I be somewhat of a scientist like Willem Dafoe
If you know then you know
Goblin up crumbs
Hit ’em with the fly kill ’em with the low
Profile, no smile, exile the old style
So vile, exhale the smoke cloud, blow trial
Dog Day Afternoon
When I talk Sgt. Rock on the block with the Glock aftershock from the boom
Rip you out your costume
Stuff you in the smallest locker, lock you in the locker room
Doctor Doom how I’m the Victor the Scripture
In Grim-Visaged War, Hardy recites the famous monologue from Richard III, using a voice that sounds quite like the one he used for Bane in The Dark Knight Rises.
And in Mad Technology, he references two Stephen King stories while also dropping a rather rude comment about Kathy Bates.
You shit-for-brain no-name lame, that bites like Cujo
I’d rather masturbate to Kathy Bates than hear you flow
And you know that Misery, it loves company
Tom! My goodness.
MoBLand
Hardy will be returning as fixer Harry Da Souza in the second season of MoBLand, which will debut on Paramount+ on September 18. A third season is in development, but for a moment, it looked as though Hardy wouldn’t return. It was initially reported that the actor left the series after butting heads creatively with showrunner Jez Butterworth, but thankfully, matters were resolved, and Hardy has returned.
