Busta Rhymes has revealed that an “asthma attack”-like experience after having sex inspired him to lose weight.
The legendary rapper has lost over 100 pounds and in a new cover story for Men’s Health published Wednesday (August 2), he opened up about the inspiration behind his decision to lose the weight.
“I was having a really difficult time breathing, so I got up and I walked out of the bedroom so she wouldn’t panic seeing me trying to keep myself calm,” he told the outlet.
The popular 51-year-old New York rapper continued, “I was trying to inhale, and it felt like it wasn’t working. I felt like I was having an asthma attack but I don’t have asthma. So I walked out of the bedroom and went into the living room, and I was forcing myself to inhale, to relax.”
Busta says his partner at the time became very concerned.
“She was like, ‘Yo, this is not who I fell in love with.’ She didn’t know what had happened outside, but she was looking at my body and the weight. She was like, ‘You gotta lose this weight. This breathing is scaring me. When I met you, you wasn’t like a musclehead, but you was slim, you was cut, you had your sh*t right. I need you to get back to who I fell in love with.’”
Now preparing to go on tour with 50 Cent, he told Men’s Health he’s working out twice a day.
“I’m trying to lean out, chisel that six-pack up, build the pecs, cap the shoulders, get the traps, triceps — you know, get your waist small, stomach flat, get your back muscle so you can take the T-shirt off on the stage.”
“I’m gonna be on stage with 50 and don’t want to be weak link,” he added.
