Gucci Mane has blown up the Twittersphere once again. And, no, people aren’t going crazy about a new single drop or another bat-shit conspiracy theory. This time, the buzz is surrounding kale. Yes, kale.
On Tuesday, the rapper posted a Snapchat story about his new appreciation for the leafy vegetable—assuring fans that he hasn’t abandoned his commitment to a healthier lifestyle.
"This is kale right here. Trying to be healthy," he said. "Everybody is sad and confused, but I'm healthy and happy."
