Busta Rhymes previously opened up about his weight loss journey in a 2023 interview with Men’s Health, revealing that a health scare during an intimate moment with his ex-wife prompted his transformation. “That was scaring me so much that it was a mindf*ck, because I had to stay calm and make sure she didn’t hear me panic or hear me struggle to breathe,” he shared. His ex-wife’s reaction to his physical condition was a wake-up call: “She was like, ‘Yo, this is not who I fell in love with. You gotta lose this weight. This breathing is scaring me.’”
Determined to return to his former fit self, Busta Rhymes embarked on a journey to reclaim his health and fitness. His recent appearance at the Knicks game is a testament to his hard work and dedication, inspiring fans with his remarkable transformation.
