NLE Choppa is addressing the viral moment that came about when he recited some vulgar lyrics to Kai Cenat.
In one of Cenat’s old streams, Choppa appeared while his song “Slut Me Out” played in the background. When the lyric “Let me nut on your butt” came on, Choppa turned to the streamer and said the lyric while on the verge of laughter.
On The Breakfast Club this week, Choppa reflected on the moment when asked about it by Charlamagne Tha God.
“I was just rapping the lyric, bruh,” he says around the 24-minute mark in the video above. “I was singing the song, but I was fucking with him, though. I was singing the lyrics, but I was looking at him. He felt uncomfortable. You know how you joke with your people.”
When asked about how situations like that and his own music have inspired rumors that he’s gay, Choppa brushed it off as something that comes with being a legend.
“What I realize with the greats is that everybody thought something about them,” he said. “Everybody that’s great, especially with this melanin color, we get crucified the most, and it’s really by our own community most of the time.”
Earlier this year, the "Shotta Flow" rapper hopped online to silence people accusing him of queerbaiting after a photo from his Playgirl shoot went viral.
The rapper took to X to defend himself after someone wrote that "the gay-baiting is seriously out of control now.”
“Never been gay-baiting. It’s me showing freedom,” NLE Choppa wrote at the time. “Anything now a days is called gay or it’s baiting. In reality, I’m comfortable enough, and have the upmost confidence in how good God designed me head to toe. Call me what you want but a straight man comfortable in my skin, I AM.”
Later, NLE Choppa elaborated on the topic in a video from his hotel bathroom.
"I just feel like narratives get painted because I don’t care so much," he said in the video. "But do not say that I'm a gay baiter because I'm comfortable enough to show off the perfection that God has orchestrated over my physical, my mental, my spiritual, and even my emotions.
“I am not a gay baiter because I posted a selfie in the mirror showing off how beautiful I am," NLE Choppa continued. "I am not a gay baiter if I post a picture showing off how much God has blessed from below the waist with something that got women going crazy. I am not a gay baiter because, in [my] Playgirl shoot, I show a piece of my ass. I can’t show a piece of my own ass without being called a name? It’s my ass!"
