Come November, rapper NLE Choppa will celebrate his 21st birthday, but that isn’t stopping him from celebrating his “Jordan year” early. On his Tay Keith-produced single, “23,” from his upcoming project Cottonwood 2, due out April 14, he raps about how special this year will be for him.
A special moment that has happened thus far includes having his song, “Mo Up Front” featured in Powerade’s “What 50% More Means” campaign during the NCAA March Madness. As a former student-athlete himself, the moment meant a lot to him.
Diving into his past as a hooper, NLE stopped by the Uproxx studios to give us his dream NBA team foster but featuring musicians only. Following the rules of the game, NLE has to choose a total of five players to fill the position of point guard, shooting guard, small forward, power forward, and center.
Up for his imaginary draft include rappers Rico Nasty, Polo G, G Herbo, Roddy Ricch, Lil Baby, Young Thug, 2Rare, Chief Keef, Ice Spice, DDG, and himself. Also on the board is singer SZA.
Watch the full video below.
