"I don't need y'all motherfuckers popping out saying, 'BigXThaPlug got a BBL, got his body done.' Naw, n***a. This all hard work and dedication, n***a," the rapper said.

"Get up, get active," he continued. "Drink you some water. Hit that gym. I been rich. Now it's time for me to be wealthy."

BigX specified that he meant the "health is wealth" mantra. "I got the money. Now I need to be healthy so I can be wealthy. You dig?" he concluded.

In October 2024, the Dallas native appeared on The Bootleg Kev Podcast, BigX shared that he wanted to "start hitting the gym" to become "healthier."

"But I can move, though," he said, adding that "partying" was partly the reason for his larger size. "I could lose weight and still not make it to eighty because we partied for seventy years."
