Musician and artist, Justin Bua, has put together a coffee table book titled Legends of Hip-Hop in which he explores the link between vegan diets and hip-hop culture.
“I think being vegan is the ultimate expression of hip-hop," Bua said.
In the book, he takes a look at hip-hop moguls like Russell Simmons, KRS-One and Dead Prez.
”‘Let’s change the way we eat, change the way we live, change the way we treat each other,’” the book reads, quoting Tupac's posthumous single, Changes. “Let’s change the way we eat? He was talking about going vegan.”
Bua also says the connection between veganism and hip-hop has been increasing for years.
