He gives new meaning to 'spitting bars.'
Legendary New York rapper Nas is buggin’ out about Exo, a Brooklyn-based startup specializing in protein bars made from crickets.
According to the hip-hop heads at Business Insider, the Illmatic MC has joined a squad of investors including Accel Foods to bring the bar brand’s funding up to $5.6 million.
The world is yours and Exo aim to combat global hunger with their environmentally friendly “cricket flour” (read: ground up insects). Cows reportedly produce 100 times the amount of greenhouse gas for the same amount of protein, so they urge you to squash that beef.
