#287 - NLE Choppa

I feel like you've always had like record sales, You've always you've gotten plaques as a kid, like, but is it a little different now when you like wherever you go you hear your shit on the radio. Because I feel like do It Again is like probably the most successful radio record you've had. It is it's my first one, so like it's my first. Welcome Down was one, but do it again, but do it again like everywhere Rhythm radio, Urban, like it's everywhere, so it's like new. It's still a

new feeling. So I'm enjoying it any time I hear it on the radio, like I turned it all the way up. I'm enjoying it because it was times I used to be like, man, I'm never on a radio, and now I'm finally on a radio, so I'm grateful for it. Yeah, it's not crazy too, because like you're kind of like you're you're so young, but you're kind of like like lightweight O g Now man, rap yours

with the success. Hey, So for the people in the comments, are going to spec it what happened with your chain because we don't want people to think you got you you you went, you know, face first into the wrong thing. You know, I don't know, Man, I did be breaking that sometimes me too, as long as it's not the

wrong breakout, you know. Yeah, for sure, for you, you're obviously one of the faces of Memphis, and you are someone who we've watched kind of grow into, like to me, one of the more mature, like well grounded, like centered artists and ramp like I feel like you kind of went from being like somebody who you never knew what kind of shit you be wrapped up in when we open the phone to now you're always spreading positivity. What would be advice you would give Jama Ran right now?

Jamran just pretty much know like all things like that must happen for you to grow and you know, for you to be more grateful for the occupation at hand. You know what I'm saying. We gotta face adversary, adversity sometimes to realize, you know, the power we hold and how good life is for us and how much God loves. So you know, there's just God sending the storm his

way so he can learn something from it. And once he learned it, he's gonna bounce back stronger than ever because you're no stranger to like late night ig lives that you probably regret. Yeah, it's yeah, so yeah, I just think like I think a lot of people will be a little hard on the dude. It's like he's a kid at the end of the day. You know

what I'm saying, You going, for sure? Man? Still single? Yeah, putting the stable together, trying to trying to put together to like, are you going to try to do the you know, the polygamy thing. Yeah, you know, I'm still on that. How's that? How's that like? Going? Like, you got to find a lot of women that will be down for certain I feel like women are a little jealous and petty to really like fill into the polygamy lifestyle. You know, I'm just letting it come to me. I

ain't read a Residents and nothing. I ain't found nobody yet, nobody yet. Yeah, but it's I got I got a few options when I ain't putting none together toys. Yeah, because it's a lot more I'm trying to focus on right now before I think about that aspect. But married, would you marry multiple women at once? Yeah? Like this is the crew. I got six of them. We hear this your room, this is your room. Tuesday, you got me, Wednesday,

you got me. Saturday we're having a party. We're all together. Yeah, yeah, something like that. Yeah, it's lip Man. When is the album, bro? Because you've been dropping so much heat, so many singles. I mean, I know you've ben you know you've been putting out a lot of music. So the Body Works gotta be on the way on April fourteenth, you know what I'm saying. It's gonna be my best body or matter of fact, got plenty of plenty of music for people.

The deluxe is already, like you already got all the songs set aside, ready to get it done. Cock load. Something dope I saw you do

recently was you gave Little Wayne literal flowers. Yeah, And I think that that was was sweet because I do feel like most of the time, artists aren't really appreciated until they're not here or until they're like you know for sure, that's the main thing. That was a purpose. What was the process like for you? Kind of growing up and litl Wayne is one of the most influential rappers ever, you know, like working with Wayne, what was that like for you? Man? Man? It was like a

dream come true. You know, you grow up listening to them, you grew up seeing them, You grew up being inspired more so than anything. Be would have shut the same room with him, you know, let alone have a song with him in a music video. I just feel it was kind of bizarre. So it was something I took heed of. I was grateful for. I let him know all throughout the through the night how much I appreciated

him just for him being himself, because he inspired me. Yeah, you know it was a huge drink on true when did you, like, did you guys get in the studio together? Is that something that he knocked out and sent back on? Now? He just sent it back over. I got the first one. I was like Whole Foods, like, did you listen to it on the phone? At Whole food My ceo one the records car and he was like, yeah, man, we got Wayne on his verse. I said, what not? I

must have reacted very loud. I must have dropped you kombucha man. I had some dropped the fruits out of checking out. Man, it was I had the whole store looking at me. I was that's what they used to call him fruit salad in high school. Yeah, that was shout out to Cyrus. He liked that nickname. By the way, Whole Foods cut the fucking check right, because I feel like you're pushing a lot of a lot of that lifestyle.

Would you guys do an album together. I'll be telling him, yeah, he he, I gotta get on polo as he No. Yeah, I'll be telling for you that and then going to it crazy. You don't know it is. I feel like it's kind of like tour season for you is like the tour following up after the album. For sure, this

is gonna be my biggest album. We're gonna have to go somewhere. We gotta go ahead. Well, actually it's gonna be that big. You know. I'm betting the bank on for you, like going in because I just saw footage of you somewhere and everyone was singing you posted it.

I think it was like last week, Yeah, my show here in North Carolina, Riley is it like, because I'm sure going and like performing the new music and hearing the kids sing it back to you, it's gotta be like it's gotta be like a certain hit of dopamine and high that comes with that. It's crazy. Like I was stopping in the middle of performing. I was like looking at my DJ, I'm like, you hear this ship

like it'd be the songs that you sometimes like. Before you release it, you be like, man, that's the one. Then when you release it, it don't be the one. But a little bit later on it start to be the one. Like you don't it don't have that instant reaction you expect. One song and that grew was like, oh I think it slipped me out, slept me out. What a time this song grew, man, And like when I rap it down for the fans, it's like the whole the whole venue singing with you. So how does

one get slotted out? Hey, you want to ask it that, I'll play a player over here. My son is in the building. Yo. It is crazy though, because like, uh, I've never had so my son Millennium is nine and I've never had him like ever come to me and say, he's like a fan of a rapper, but like you're his screensaver on his iPad. It's crazy for real, yes, so on on his iPad it's like a picture of you,

and I was like, that's my boy. He's like, you know, and that FaceTime that you're playing basketball when we call it, he's like almost cried. It was kind of crazy. I'm surprised he's been so composed. It's crazy. Ye know, bro, he's like your number one. Like I'm telling you, bro, he just be eating cereal his iPad be playing just your tiktoks on loops on YouTube. Bro, It's crazy. This was up man. That's why he was like. He was like his mom coming to it's mama beer. You know,

fucking mom's a celebrity over there. So when your mom put the toaster upside your head? How did that feel? How does it feel to get into clients cracked upside your head? They feel good? I like violence, you know, I love vilence A. You're firm of valince yo? Do you feel like any? I mean? Because because I do feel like you are one of the few guys who like is a good role model for kids. Do you do you feel like there was a certain point in time or you kind of started to feel that responsibility

on the energy you're putting out in the world. Yeah, for sure, Like when when artists were wrapped to me my I mean, when kids was rapping to me my songs, and when kids was willing to like get nerve guns just off base, like when I was first coming out any guns, real guns I had in my video like Nail want the nerve guns and all that. So I had to realize my influence. And you know, nerve guns graduate to BB guns and b B guns graduated to real guns. So it's just trying to fix that, you know.

So I've always like my music probably all the time don't reflect the most positive for me as a person. I know, like, okay, I can give them that, you know, just like you say, he looked on his iPad, look at my tiktoks. He'll probably see my music, hear my music, but he'll also see a goofy side or personality of me.

You know that everyone has. I also think too, like just like the when you do interviews, when you're like when you're like, so, I mean, music is one thing, right, Like you're gonna you gotta express yourself artistically, how are you feeling that day? But at the same time, like when you sit down or you go on live or you talk to fans, you do interviews, there's a certain

energy that you put out there that's always positive. Did you see NBA Young Boy had an interview recently where he was like kind of communicating how regret how he regrets some of the shit he's put it into the air. Yeah. Yeah, I feel like there's a lot of you know, I

feel like we've watched y'all kind of grow up. Man, So it's like dope to see kind of because as a as an old head as they would say me and some of the shit, I'll just be like stressed out for you man, I'm like, man, these motherfuckers got be with everybody going on, you know what I mean. It's like, I'm sure it's like hard to like you got a studio session in the city. Maybe you're not from like you always got to be on your toe I mean, you should always be on your toes. Let's

be clear. You should always make sure that you know your guard is up. But you know, do you feel like a lot more at peace now? Oh? Yeah, I always feel that piece, you know. I just know what God got over my life. I know the protection he has over my life. I'm deserning and the intuition I have rather is going to hear it going in there or staying here staying there. So never really like not at peace with any situation because I just know, like at the end of the day, I'm guided and protected,

you know, beyond anything. Have you connected with Glow really yet? Oh? Yeah, we've talked. We haven't made any music, though. I feel like you guys would make up. I'd be going to. I'd be trying to. She'd be busy though, she's no, Yeah, she's real busy. What is your diet like right now? I think every time I see you, you're you got some sort of expensive water or some wild shit you're eating. What are you like, is there like a specific diet you're on right now? A raw alkaline that's the same

thing you're on last time. So for people who don't know what is a raw alkaline diet? So only fruits and like vegetables and the only things that's like we all and Alkalina, so pretty much nothing cooked and no cooked food. No cooked food. So it's just like sallys or no meat, fruits, no meats, still vegan, still alkaline vegan. Wow, do you miss meat at all? How terrible? Is an impossible burger? Impossible burger? Tastes real good? Actually, I got

to try it. It just looks is it good for you? Know, it's not good for it's terrible for you, but it tastes good though. You're for Memphis obviously one of the

biggest out the city. But jamar Ran has been in the news recently, has gone through So I feel like some of the stuff that you kind of went through earlier on in your career would be advice you would give John Morantman always just knowing that God send you a throng for you to learn something from it, you know what I'm saying, For you to overcome and for you to have appreciation for the blessing he gave you, because he can show you how quick he can take it away from you as well, so he'll learn it

quick and he'll be right over. Hey, we got to stop the interview to tell you about our good folks at blue chew baby. That's right. A lot of people keep asking me this blue Choo work. Fuck yeah does.
