Before NLE Choppa became a household name, he was just a teenager in Memphis previewing his music at his high school. That track was “Shotta Flow”, the song that would change his life. 🔥 Released in January 2019, “Shotta Flow” exploded online thanks to its energetic delivery, sharp flows, and a viral WorldStarHipHop video that quickly racked up millions of views. Within weeks, the single entered the Billboard Hot 100 and eventually peaked inside the Top 40, a rare feat for an independent artist at the time. The success of “Shotta Flow” sparked a major label bidding war, but Choppa chose to sign with UnitedMasters, keeping control of his music while still going global. The track went on to earn multiple platinum certifications from the RIAA and spawned several sequels, becoming one of the defining rap series of the 2019s. Born Bryson Potts in 2002, NLE Choppa built his reputation on high-energy performances, hard-hitting trap beats, and lyrics that balanced street authenticity with youthful charisma. With “Shotta Flow” as his breakthrough, he went from performing in school gyms to becoming one of the most streamed rappers of his generation in just a matter of months. Looking back, that high school performance wasn’t just a moment for his classmates, it was the beginning of a career that would take NLE Choppa to the world stage. 💯 #rap #hiphop #nlechoppa #rapmusic #hiphopmusic - @rap.minded
