Is nle chopp gay

At the end of January, rapper NLE Choppa responded to an unfortunate but ever-lingering criticism about him. Throw in the decline of public education, including arts programs, and social media algorithms boosting incel culture, and we now exist in a climate where Black men are barely allowed to bathe daily without being questioned about their sexuality.

Call me what you want but a straight man comfortable in my skin, I AM.”

After his initial response, NLE Choppa followed up with a video where he talked about the androgyny and ass cheek displayed in the Playgirl photo. I have been accused of being part of such an agenda — if only I were as powerful as some imagined me to be.

Ultimately, NLE Choppa will be fine. Let me show more love to the people that y’all are saying I’m aligned with because we are all humans at the end of the day,” he shared.

NLE Choppa has announced his engagement to musician Erica Ravén.

The rapper posted images on Instagram showing him getting down on one knee and presenting an engagement ring to his now-fiancée.

Erica appeared shocked in one image, and in a later one showed off her ring finger with a bedazzled diamond ring.

NLE captioned the post with, “Now That’s Gangsta.”

The news of the engagement comes fast considering that rumors the couple was dating started just a few months ago.

Okay, let me give y’all some more reasons to feel that way, even though I know I’m not. Well, baby, we knew that,” the clip says.

However, NLE saw this and gave his own response.

“Never said I was gay,” he shot back.

The news comes after the rapper spoke to Paper Magazine about the LGBTQ community.

“It’s a beautiful thing because the amount of people who [have] had something to say is what fuels me to stay deeply rooted in my purpose.

On the song he raps, “If I was a bad b*tch, I’d wanna f*ck me too, hmm/ I’d wanna suck me too, hmm/ I’d wanna slut me too, hmm.”

Some social media users questioned the lyrics and Chopra’s sexuality.

“I am not a gay-baiter because I post a selfie in the mirror showing off how beautiful I am. In reality I’m comfortable enough, and have the upmost confidence in how good God designed me head to toe. I can’t show a piece of my own ass without being called a name?”

The rapper has repeatedly stated that he is a straight man who just so happens to respect every letter member of the LGBTQ+ community (so much so that he has performed at Pride events).

“I understand me being in love with myself as a BLACKMAN is so RARE to the point some people try putting the homosexual jacket on my name but with all due respect I love ALL, but my intimacy lies with women only,” he wrote on X (formerly Twitter).

NLE Choppa is clearing the air.

Underneath the original tweet a social media user replied with a clip of Tim (Brandon Black) coming out as gay in Tyler Perry‘s 2022 ‘A Madea Homecoming.’

“That’s all you want to say?

He, along with Rick James and many others, would be subjected to worse and nonstop rumors about their sexuality over how they dressed on stage in this era.

Even so, straight men in hip-hop can play with androgyny and enjoy widespread success in ways their gay counterparts in rap cannot; it’s so frustrating to watch in real time how far we continue to fall.

At a moment when genuine freedoms are being trampled on, the least we can do is allow each other the space to express ourselves without it being attached to our sexual identities.

NLE Choppa should be allowed to dress as he pleases and is correct in his assertion that a lot of people think everything is “gay.”

This type of thinking lacks imagination, but I’m glad NLE Choppa, no matter what people say about him, remains steadfast in not joining that homophobic wave.

I wish people would let him be a baddie in peace.
