Hip Hop and Healthy Living
In hip hop, bigger is always better. That goes for everything, including body type. But lately, the game is looking a little leaner.
Jay Z and Beyonce went vegan for 22 days. DJ Khaled, Fat Joe, Joell Ortiz, and others have dropped the pounds. After a seizure, Rick Ross, even wrote a song inspired by one his favorite healthy snacks. "When I did get out the hospital, the doctor told me I need to drink a little more water and eat more fruit, so for the next month, I was eating diced pineapples," the Bawse tells Fuse News.
Styles P, one third of the legendary rap group The Lox, took healthy to a whole new when he opened a juice bar in the Bronx. The self-proclaimed "best hardcore lyricist in the game" has been known for his love of the green, but this time, it means something different.
