E87-Jay Z works out for longevity and riches

In this short episode I look at the current health and fitness obsession / accountability undertaken by hip hop musicians, from Jay Z and Busta Rhymes to Method Man and Kendrick Lamar. With the accumulation of approximately 2.5 billion dollars of personal wealth Jay Z is the worlds richest music artist of any genre and fittingly works out to prolong his health, with weight training and a keen eye on a balanced healthy diet. Countless rappers have fallen victim to an early grave, by way of obesity related disease and or alcohol / drug related consumption. With this in mind, the famous MCs of New York, Los Angeles, Atlanta and Chicago are enlisting personal trainers and dieticians to assist with weight loss, muscle gain and nutritional adherence. The point being...next time you play your favorite artist, get down to your local gym or PT and break a sweat yourself.
