NLE Choppa is back to dropping new music as he enters a new era. During this time, hes also been navigating his spiritual journey and rumors. As of last week, NLE has also been dealing with his public breakup from Erica Raven.
On Friday, NLE revealed that he got baptized and shared a message about entering a new chapter in his life. He said Christ is still working on him, but he feels ready to embrace this new version of himself. NLE also addressed alleged witches & warlocks, voodoo, hexes, and spells that he claims were sent his way. He said God allowed those experiences to happen to strengthen him throughout his spiritual journey.
In the same post, NLE also had a few things to say about some of his fellow rappers. He got a few things off his chest in a new freestyle while addressing his influence in the rap game.
NLE Choppa took to his IG Story to share a clip from his latest freestyle with the LA Leakers. He spat a few bars about people speaking on his name, saying, Ill be the one to hurt you. Stop playing on my name all love, Im not trying to start hating. Got my name in conversation, pillow talking like a baby. Where the Gs? We address it. Its a message, I direct it. If you cant respect it, make sure you dont disrespect me.
In the same post, NLE tagged Pooh Shiesty, who is currently incarcerated, writing, @poohshiesty showed way too much love to you for you to be pillow talking on my name TO A FEMALE. Imma show you how to be direct homie. Free you tho tell 30 hit me up.
This seems to come after an alleged phone call surfaced in early July, where Pooh Shiesty reportedly called NLE Choppa gay. The alleged call surfaced amid reports that Marissa DaNae, who shares a son with NLE, is allegedly expecting a baby girl with Pooh Shiesty.
But NLE didnt stop there. While sharing another clip from the freestyle, he made it clear hes stepping into a new era, writing, IM BACK AND WHOEVER AGAINST TS F*** EM #NLEVSEVERYBODY. NLE also showed some love to his ex-fiance Erica, writing, Te amo Erica forever & ever.
The rapper later made his way to his page to celebrate his baptism, sharing a carousel of photos with individual captions. The carousel featured NLE, his youngest son, Icon Potts, his chain, his new wick locs, and more.
In one post, NLE spoke about his influence on other artists while mentioning both Pooh Shiesty and NBA YoungBoy. He claimed Shiestys chain resembles his and accused YoungBoy of taking inspiration from his camo aesthetic.
NLE also credited himself with influencing younger artists to prioritize owning their masters while reflecting on his success at a young age.
He wrote, IM HYMM, The one they wanna be, the one they copy, ni**as aint have a Momager & Popager til I came on the scene. Shiesty That Chain Look real close to mine, YB ran off my camo aesthetic after I sent it to em, Im the reason these boys of this generation wanna own they masters I wanna NLE CHOPPA DEAL 16 I was 10Ms up first car was a Cullinan truck while yall was riding hemis & scats n sh*t man do yo homework on my influence I can write a book about it but thats enough ego.
NLE continued by showing off his new wick locs while claiming YoungBoy previously copied his loc style. Despite the callout, he said it was all love and explained that he was simply shedding light on his influence.
He wrote, Pleaseeeee dont copy my Wick Locs PLEASE. YB already ran off with my locs style I had to switch it up this go round. All love though just shedding light on my influence. Light it up. Do ya homework before saying Im clout chasing or lying. The real ones know.
Many gathered under The Shade Room Teens as they reacted to NLE Choppas latest post. While some gave him props for his rapping skills, others questioned why he was specifically coming for Pooh Shiesty and NBA YoungBoy.
