I had a breathing issue after the intimate interaction,” the rapper, 51, recalled during a recent interview with Men’s Health. “I was having a really difficult time breathing, so I got up and I walked out of the bedroom so she wouldn’t panic seeing me trying to keep myself calm.”Busta — whose real name is Trevor George Smith Jr. — said he felt like he was having an “asthma attack” but noted he doesn’t have asthma. “That was scaring me so much that it was a mindf–k, because I had to stay calm and make sure she didn’t hear me panic or hear me struggle to breathe,” he remembered. “I’m butt-ass naked in the living room, trying to calm myself down.”When he returned to the bedroom, his ex told him that he was no longer the man she fell in love with. “She didn’t know what had happened outside, but she was looking at my body and the weight,” Busta said. “She was like, ‘You gotta lose this weight.
This breathing is scaring me. When I met you, you wasn’t like a musclehead, but you, you was slim, you was cut, you had your s–t right.
