Jadakiss explains why being healthy is important.
The trend of taking fitness seriously in the rappers continues to grow, as the legendary Jadakiss also advocate the importance of a healthy lifestyle. The LOX members recently sat down on “The Pull Up” show with special guest Lil Cease where the two icons indulge in a workout session and talked about why good physical fitness is “gangsta”.
“I think healthy is gangsta,” Jadakiss said while talking about how people tells him that he and Styles P made the workout look cool. “Everybody want to be tough guys and this and that, and rich. If you not healthy, you can’t be alive to spend your money. If you not healthy, you can’t enjoy the party, you can’t enjoy the perks of life, you won’t be here to see your kids graduate, to see ’em score they first touchdown, to see things like that. So health is more important than anything.”
The rapper stated that while he hasn’t completely abandoned the extravagant partying associated with hip-hop, he has adopted a more “balanced lifestyle,” which has greatly aided his ability to perform live. “It actually makes you feel good,” he asserted. “It actually helps out with being onstage now – your breath control is better, you can rock a plethora of songs without having to tell the DJ to stop it.”
A good example of Jadakiss’ fitness level is the viral clip in which he casually did pull-ups in New York City in a pair of Timbs.
That time Jadakiss did pull-ups in NYC with Timbs on 😂
