Sir Mix-A-Lot To Release "Big Butts" NFT To Fundraise for Colorectal Cancer

Published Thu, March 17, 2022 at 6:11 PM EDT

Sir Mix-a-Lot is coming up on the 30th anniversary of his classic 1992 hit single  “Baby Got Back’ with an exclusive NFT collection to raise money for the Colorectal Cancer Alliance. 

The “Big Butts,” project finds the Seattle, Washington rapper partnering with META-X Studios to launch a collection of 6,666 unique, hand-drawn NFTs, crafted by animation artists. Sir-Mix-A-Lot has personally designed the collection’s rarest NFTs, staying true to his classic No. 1 single, hand drawing his own collection of digital currency rare-ends. 

A portion of each sale will be donated to the Colorectal Cancer Alliance, a national nonprofit organization dedicated to ending the rare life-threatening disease.

The percentage going to the Colorectal Cancer Alliance is still being negotiated by organizers, according to a META-X spokesman, but will be a percentage of the gross profits.”

“When the team at META-X showed me what they were doing, it was a no-brainer for me,” said Sir Mix-A-Lot. “And as an artist entering this new medium of NFTs, the idea of designing my own branded butts was exciting. Add to it the benefit of raising funds for a great cause like colorectal cancer, and wow! I hope everyone enjoys grabbing onto some nice NFT booty while helping others at the same time.”
