Hip Hop Hard Body

Been a crazy Summer! Livin’ it up on this end,  hope you’re are doing the same.

Snoop Dogg is showing the impact that Hip Hop & Fitness has on the community by starting a football league in Chicago for young Boys.  You all know that Chicago is going through something serious in the streets, too many young lives being taken.

Snoop is taking the same formula he has used in Los Angeles since 2004 and bringing it to the Chi.

Snoop speaks on the purpose of the league:

“If we don’t give these kids nothin’ to fight for, they’re gonna die for nothin. I wanna give them something to fight for. Sometimes in life you gotta understand the small things like football and teamwork and organized community work goes a long way with these kids.”

The league is comprised of 6 teams from 6 neighborhoods, and they start their season in August 2011.  It sounds like the league is doing way more than football, but working more like a youth enrichment program to broaden the horizons of Chicago’s Youth in a mission to eliminate the violence.

Great to hear a Hip Hop Legend like Snoop showing what a BOSS looks like by taking matters into his own hands. Each one teach one, lead by example.

Kelly told Men’s Fitness how she stays looking like perfection:

I exercise, I try to eat healthy.  I try to get as much rest as I can and I drink a lot of water.

In response to what her regimen consists of: Continue Reading…

The Sexy, Phenomenal, Power-playing  & Curvaceous Beyonce is flexing that legendary status by teaming up with First Lady of the US of A, Michele Obama for her ‘Let’s Move’ campaign.

If you don’t know already, M. Obama has been championing to stop obesity amongst kids in the US with her ‘Let’s Move’ Campaign, and we at Hip Hop Hard Body think it’s genius that she teamed up with the 1st lady of Pop & Hip Hop in her latest project.

Beyonce remixed her “Get me Bodied” single (from the album B-Day) to a more fit-focused “Move your Body,” paired with a video of some tweens doing fun & simple dance moves to the re-vamped track.  Check the video out along with a video of Beyonce letting you know what the mission behind the movement is all about! More to come!
