NLE Choppa’s Mom Speaks Out After Allegations That the Rapper “Starved” His Kids
NLE Choppa’s mom, Angela Potts, is stepping in to defend her son after serious allegations surfaced online from the mothers of his children.
The controversy began in September, when Marissa, the mother of NLE’s one-year-old son Chozen, took to X (formerly Twitter) to claim that the rapper made their toddler fast. The situation quickly intensified after Mariah, the mother of NLE’s oldest child Clover, seemingly backed Marissa’s claims by tweeting, “be starving Clover’s a* as well 😭😭😭.”*
Angela wasn’t having it. On Saturday, October 4, she took to Instagram to clear the air and shut down what she called false accusations. In several clips posted to her stories, she showed NLE Choppa enjoying meals with his kids — a direct attempt to counter the claims.
She didn’t stop there. Angela also jumped into the comment section, writing,
“Y’all going to pay for all these damn lies ‘cause y’all know I got receipts for everything.”
In another comment, she added sarcastically,
“So he starving kids with a hired chef. OK.”
Despite Angela’s defense, the situation only grew more heated. Mariah accused Angela of enabling NLE’s behavior and even brought up a past incident in which their daughter allegedly got hurt while in his care.
Meanwhile, Marissa shared screenshots of alleged text messages between herself and the rapper, where he reportedly admitted to having their son fast and giving him “beet juice” as part of a juice cleanse. According to Marissa, the cleanse led to health concerns that landed their son in the emergency room for dehydration and irregular bowel movements.
As of now, NLE Choppa himself has not publicly responded to the claims or his mother’s defense. However, the story continues to unfold online as fans debate whether the fasting claims hold weight — or if this is another case of family drama spilling onto the internet.
