Photo Credit- Johnnie Carpenter courtesy Warner Records Even at such a young age Hip Hop star NLE Choppa has made his mark, and hes even already expanded his endeavors far beyond just Hip Hop. NLE is certainly his own competition as he continually battles himself on the journey of continued greatness. Debuting at 16, NLE still displays so much passion and conviction with quite an energetic and aggressive delivery to this day. The 19-year-old recently dropped his Me vs. Me album that displays his sharp prowess and chronicles the layers and different sides of his life as well as the battles he faces with self daily. While music is still very much on the forefront, the Memphis emcee also has been working in his community to open schools and libraries. He has also launched his food truck with the purpose of putting healthier food options in the community with the intent to change the thought process and improve the overall health of his community. Health and wellness are near and dear to NLE Choppa, as this has also been evident through his work in alternative medicine and with the birth of his NLE Heath & Wellness store. NLEs mission with the store is to help heal people holistically without the use of pharmaceuticals. AllHipHops Rea Davis had a chance to talk Me vs. Me, health and wellness, expansion, and more with NLE. AllHipHop: How does it feel to have achieved so much success at such a young age, especially since everything kind of took off when you were 16? NLE Choppa: I just feel like its a blessing. I feel like its a lot of people, you know what Im saying, a lot of older people that wasnt doing what Im doing at this age, and a lot of people right now are not doing what Im doing at this age, so I feel like its a huge blessing because at the end of the day, its an opportunity that doesnt come to a lot of us that early. A lot of people gotta work a little harder for it. Some things like this dont come until like early or late twenties, damn near in your thirties. So, I just feel like Im blessed, and God saw something in me that he instilled in me since birth. It put me in the position that Im in today. AllHipHop: Has it hit you yet? Sometimes when success hits, life is moving so fast. Do you live in the moment? Do you take it all in? NLE Choppa: I really live in the moment, but I still feel like it just aint hit me hit me yet. I feel like the best time things do hit you is when its memory. I feel like a little later on in life Im going to be like yo I really did all of this at this age. I really was this. A lot of stuff I dont really too much enjoy right now because Im always looking for the next thing. Im trying to be better than who I was yesterday. Im never really complacent with what Im doing now. Im just all about the next step. So when it does get to the time where I really just sit down and relax and look back on my life, I know like Im going to be more grateful for these years/ my early years because its the foundation for my future. AllHipHop: Talk to me about this project. What was the inspiration behind Me Vs. Me? NLE Choppa: Um Myself. Thats pretty much why I named it Me Vs. Me because I feel like I was battling myself good and bad. Whatever it was, I always came back to self with questions. Came back to self with what songs I should put on there. Came back to self with which songs were hard. Just battling myself. So, I feel like the biggest inspiration was me. AllHipHop: So a lot of times we are in our own head, battling our own self on everyday decisions, or sometimes it can get a little hectic and sometimes we are in our own way. So how do you get around it when you are battling yourself? NLE Choppa: Trusting you. You know what Im saying. Having faith in what you do. Having faith in what God has already designed you to do. I feel like thats why I named it Me Vs. Me because its a lot of times as people we sit down and doubt ourselves, and thats when we become our enemies. But as long as we know like whatever we doing is going to be achieved its no pressure on it, so I realize that even if I do doubt sometimes, I still stay with that goal. I still stay on a road thats hard and thats rocky because I know on the other side, its gonna be smooth. Just knowing that whatever you are trying to achieve is already achieved. Keep working. AllHipHop: So you are big on meditation. A lot of people are trying to get into meditation; a lot of people like it. What does meditation look like for you? NLE Choppa: Meditation, I aint gonna lie, it saved my life. It was at a point of time where I was at my lowest, and I was at my lowest because just off the simple fact that I wasnt even breathing right. I wasnt getting the right amount of oxygen into the brain. I wasnt getting the right amount of oxygen, and I wasnt releasing the right amount of carbon dioxide. A lot of stuff had me toxic. A lot of stuff was building up. It really just saved my life because it brought calmness in Read more
