NLE Choppa always makes headlines for his raunchy lyrics and crazy antics, and this week is no exception. Yesterday, the 21-year-old rapper posted a message on Twitter/X that left his fans scratching their heads. “I’m coming out,” he wrote simply next to a series of selfies. Of course, some people thought he meant he was going to announce something related to his sexual orientation. Others thought he was just playing a prank.
Now, he’s taken to the internet to clarify things, revealing that he was only referring to a new project. “With a new song (PINNED^) new project this month and black duck boots,” he replied to his original tweet, adding “Y’all didn’t let me finish.” Fans in the artist’s comments section had mixed reactions.
NLE Choppa says he’s “coming out” with new project
“You have enough character to pull off this title, you know what you’re doing,” one fan wrote. “Don’t piss me off,” said another. While some believe it is wrong for NLE Choppa to use the LGBTQ+ community for promotion, others point out that he has expressed support for the LGBTQ+ community in the past. For example, earlier this month, he performed at a Black Pride event in Atlanta.
He took the opportunity to address the hate he’s received for showing love to his LGBTQ+ fans on stage. “I deeply know who I am and I appreciate who I am. I’m going to do my justice and show love to the LGBTQ community by coming to Atlanta for Black Pride, who are watching Sl*t Me Out 2 “one of the best audiences,” he explained. “Just like they showered love on me, I would love that back.” What are your thoughts on NLE Choppa’s announcement earlier this week that he was “coming out”? So what about his later revelation that he just wanted to launch a new project? Please share your thoughts in the comments section below and follow HNHH for more updates.
