The news of NLE Choppa going missing had caused widespread worry among his fans, the music community, and especially his mother. His sudden absence raised questions about his well-being and safety.
On Friday, the 20-year-old rapper’s mother and manager Angeleta Potts called on social media to help locate her son as she said she had not heard from him in hours, which she said was not like him.
Thankfully, in a new update, she revealed that he has since been located. She said in an early morning statement: “Thank you for the PRAYERS and SUPPORT. Choppa’s ok he just needed a minute, but didn’t communicate it to his love ones. I never intended to scare anvone with my post nor did I expect for people to think he is missing But the frustrations of being the mother of a celebrity can be a bit much and overwhelming at times.”

Although his mother’s statement brings some reassurance, it still leaves many wondering about the circumstances surrounding his disappearance.
As previously reported, Choppa did express some frustration before he went went missing. He responded to a fan who said “NLE Choppa fell off.” He said, “Folks pissing me off. What NLE y’all watching bug beg it up.” Someone else added, “WE WANT OLD CHOPPA,” to which he replied, “Y’all keep asking for old NLE like the music I ain’t been giving y’all recently ain’t getting plaques! I’m tryna grow as a artist but y’all want me backtracking on BS. But bet that up. I’m on straight dirt y’all got me fashed up. One of the most streamed artists this year BUT BET.”
NLE Choppa has yet speak out about this latest incident. However, he is not the only star who has done this.
As we previously reported, former Nickelodeon star Drake Bell went missing earlier this year. After it became national news, Bell returned and offer an explanation. He said at the time, “You leave your phone in the car and don’t answer for the night and this?” He added a laughing emoji, seemingly implying the entire ordeal was simply a mistake.
