Prepare yourselves because this is a sentence you never thought you would read: Rapper 2 Chainz is creating an Instagram-based recipe book titled #MEALTIME.
Julia Child is rolling over in her grave crying.
Yes, that’s right, the man behind hits like “Girl You’re Freak” and “I Be Goin’ Hard” is a big time fan of food porn and he’s going to put all that posting to work in his new book. Those who buy the deluxe edition of his upcoming album, B.O.A.T.S II will get a digital copy of #MEALTIME.
Now I know what you’re thinking – actually, no I don’t. I have no idea what I’m even thinking about all this. It defies coherent thought behind “whaaa…?” But if you’re leaning toward the cynical side, I can’t blame you – all I can do is tell you that the menu and photos actually seem legit. According to HipHopDX, 2 Chainz suffers from ulcers and acid reflux and is a health-conscious eater.
Recipes for Crab Cakes With Mango Salsa, Garlicky Green Beans, and Beer-Steamed Snow Crab Legs are just some of what you can expect to see in #MEALTIME – but feel free to check out what 2 Chainz’s himself is personally eating and Instagramming in the gallery above. Now that I’ve finished this slideshow, I am going to go empty the contents of my refrigerator to try and reproduce brunch a la 2 Chainz.
