After the list dropped, Memphis, Tennessee rapper NLE Choppa took to his Instagram on Friday (September 13) and shared a 6-and-a-half-minute video blasting Complex. He captioned the post, “Y’all ain’t gone fight for me? Bet.”
In his video, NLE Choppa began, “Whoever made that Complex list, I just want to let you know something: Yo a** need to go do Rock ’N Roll or some other sh*t. You see, I’ve been tucking my tail. I’ve been trying to be more positive. I’ve been trying to be more of a [light] for these people and y’all got me f***ed up. Y’all keep playing with me. Whoever made that motherf***ing list, go do R&B or some motherf***ing sh*t, ‘cause y’all got me f***ed up. And I ain’t discrediting nobody on that motherf***ing list. No way, shape, or form.”

NLE continued, “But, you should have did 21 motherf***ers instead of 20 if you wanted to leave me off that motherf***er. You feel me?” He continued to boast, “October… After September, I’mma get through this lil season sh*t. I’mma get this sh*t off my chest, and after that, I’m back on y’all motherf***ing a**es, ‘cause y’all got me f***ed up, for real. On the real. I swear to God.”
NLE Choppa went on to list off his accomplishments at such a young age. He said, “21. 18 Platinum [certifications]. 67 Gold. Y’all got me f***ed up. Go look at the certifications. Let me know who’s beating me, bruh. Respectfully. The only n***a that’s really—respect-fu-lly—the only n***a that really, really, really, really, really, really ahead in that space is YoungBoy. I’m 21, bruh. Y’all made a list about [rappers] in their 20’s. N***a, I’m one year into my 20’s. Ain’t nobody did what I did. Who did what I did by 21, my n***a? Sold out shows everywhere?”
