Early Life, Bio

Bryson Potts was born in Memphis, Tennessee, on November 1, 2002. He attended Cordova High School in Memphis, where he grew up. He was interested in basketball as a child, but was unable to focus on the sport because he was frequently in trouble.

At 14 years of age, he began rapping with his pals. After turning 15, he released 'No Love Anthem' under the alias "YNR Choppa."

In January of 2019, NLE Choppa launched his breakthrough single "Shotta Flow." Within two weeks of its YouTube debut, the song had over 300,000 views.

It subsequently garnered 10 million views inside a month. In February of 2019, he released the sequel 'Shotta Flow Pt. 2, which garnered 20 million YouTube views in two months.

Top music labels engaged in a bidding war in response to Choppa's popularity.

In the same month, he made his debut at a music festival by performing at the "Beale Street Music Festival." His performance was praised by critics, and Bob Mehr predicted "more great Memphis moments" in his career.

Defending His Sexuality

Recently, as reported by TMZ, NLE Choppa had to defend his right to display the contents of his boxers... even if half of his fans did not appreciate it.

The Memphis rapper evidently felt sexy over the weekend and released a provocative mirror photo, attracting a great deal of interest from appreciating ladies but condemnation from male fans, including one fan account. Adin Ross, a popular YouTuber, could not believe his eyes and sent NLE multiple texts in disbelief, which were also criticized online. The response was so substantial and implied the rapper must not be straight that NLE released a response.

He stated that he felt confident enough in his sexuality to pull off such a photo, but clarified that he was a heterosexual guy.
