Rapper Bryson LaShun Potts, originally from Memphis, Tennessee, is better known by his stage name NLE Choppa (formerly YNR Choppa). He was born on November 1, 2002. His 2019 hit song “Shotta Flow” launched him to popularity; it peaked in the Top 40 of the Billboard Hot 100 and was certified platinum by the RIAA.

Has NLE Choppa converted to Islam?
The video seems quite promising, but it seems like NLE Choppa was only learning to pray the Islamic way. He hasn’t issued any statement or posted any video which confirms that he has converted to Islam. It might be that he is still exploring before he makes that beautiful decision and takes his Shahada. Fans are praying for his inclusion in the fold of Islam.
On 17th November, he addressed his fans by saying:
I believe God Lives Within All Of Us, I Believe In Prayer, I believe In Faith, Karma, And Discipline. My Religion is Undecided But I Know Living Within These Principles I’m On The Right PATH! But To The Muslims Across The World ESPECIALLY In The Middle East My Respect Has Grew To Another Level ! The Islam Culture Is United & Striving! This Is A Message To Show APPRECIATION, Thank You For Treating Me Like A BROTHER 🤲🏼 Religious Or Not We Are All ONE, YOU ARE ME, I AM YOU.. Let’s Treat Each Other In This Manner And The World A Be A Better PLACE ☮️
