Memphis rap duo 8Ball and MJG have a new album dropping this month, and 8Ball hopes to be a smaller man when it arrives.
The emcee recently caught up with AllHipHop.com and revealed that he’s trying to shed a few pounds. He explains, quote, “I been doing a change in the way I eat, I got youngin’s. I’m getting older everyday, so I just changed the way I eat man. Lost a little bit already.” 8Ball says he’s cut soda, bread, beef and pork from his diet, adding that he has been using a treadmill and doing yoga.
He remarks, quote, “We be doing a lot of stuff to give you more energy.” 8Ball and MJG’s upcoming album, “Ten Toes Down,” will arrive on April 27th. The record – which will be their first release on T.I.’s Grand Hustle – will feature appearances from Snoop Dogg, Bun B., David Banner and T.I.
