NLE Choppa‘s Mother Provides Holiday Hope to Family Displaced by Fire
The holiday season is a time for giving, and one Memphis family received an remarkable gift this year thanks to the generosity of Angela Potts, mother of rapper NLE Choppa. Potts stepped in to provide not only shelter but also a renewed sense of hope for a family recently devastated by a house fire. This act of kindness exemplifies the ongoing commitment of the NLE Choppa Foundation to supporting the local community.
A Swift Response to Tragedy
Corey Jefferson and his family lost everything in a fire just days before Christmas. Learning of their plight through social media, Potts felt a strong urge to help. Initially, she planned to provide Christmas gifts to ensure the children wouldn’t miss out on the joy of the season.
However, a conversation with Jefferson revealed a more pressing need: housing. He explained that finding a place to stay before Christmas was financially unfeasible. Recognizing she had a vacant rental property, Potts immediately offered it to the family for several months, rent-free.
More Than Just a Roof Over Their Heads
Potts didn’t stop at providing a home. She wanted to create a warm and welcoming environment for the family’s return. Upon arrival, Jefferson and his family discovered the house already filled with toys, shoes, and other essential items.
“I said, ‘This will be a great blessing to bring them back together under the same roof for Christmas,'” Potts explained. This thoughtful gesture transformed a heartbreaking situation into a moment of unexpected joy.
The NLE Choppa Foundation: A legacy of Giving
This act of compassion is just one example of the NLE Choppa Foundation’s dedication to uplifting the Memphis community. The foundation, spearheaded by NLE Choppa himself, consistently engages in direct outreach programs to support local families.
Here are some of the foundation’s recent initiatives:
* Annual Toy Drives: NLE Choppa regularly organizes toy drives to ensure children in need have a memorable Christmas.
* Personal Visits: He has personally visited individuals facing hardship, like Neeno, a young fan battling leukemia.
* Children’s Literature: NLE Choppa recently released “Cricket Stop Cricking,” a children’s book aimed at inspiring and educating young readers.

While dedicated to giving back, NLE Choppa continues to evolve as an artist. This year, he explored a new musical direction under the moniker NLE The Great, releasing singles like “Messiah (Devil’s Diss),” “KO,” and “Hello Revenge.”
