Hip hop superstar Buster Rhymes lost a reported 100 pounds, after going on the popular diet drug Ozempic, Media Take Out has learned.

To get an idea of just how much weight that Busta lost, here’s a photo of what the rapper looked like just one year ago – when he performed for the 50th Anniversary of hip hop celebration.

A lot has changed since then. Here’s Busta showing off his weight loss on IG last week.

And before you think it’s “just:” the diet drug that caused Busta to lose weight, you’re absolutely wrong. Ozempic – we’re told by people close to Busta – is juts a part of his holistic weight loss regiment.

“Busta exercises daily, eats healthy whole food, and is living a generally more healthy lifestyle,” an insider explained to Media Take Out.

Here are some more recent photos of the new and improves Bussa Buss.

Busta Rhymes was an original member of Leaders of the New School, a group that attracted national attention when they opened on tour for Public Enemy. He gained exposure for their guest appearance on A Tribe Called Quest’s track “Scenario”. Shortly thereafter, Leaders of the New School broke up, leading Rhymes to become a sought after solo artist, appearing on numerous tracks for other artists before his solo debut album, The Coming (1996). The album reached the top ten on the Billboard 200 album chart, was certified platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA), and earned him a Grammy nomination.

He has released eleven total solo albums, with the most recent being 2023’s Blockbusta. Rhymes’ list of hit singles include “Woo-Hah!! Got You All in Check”, “It’s a Party”, “Put Your Hands Where My Eyes Could See”, “Dangerous”, “Turn It Up” (Remix)/”Fire It Up”, “Gimme Some More”, “What’s It Gonna Be?”, “Pass the Courvoisier, Part II”, “I Know What You Want” and “Touch It”.
