NLE Choppa Reveals His Diss Track Came From A Dream
NLE Choppa is letting folks know that his new diss track aimed at NBA Youngboy didn’t come from hate — it came from something way deeper. The Memphis rapper recently told Rolling Stone that his song “KO” was sparked by a dream so vivid, he had to pray on it.
He recalled, “The dream was me holding a young boy’s head in my hand, and I was bringing the head to my father in the dream — my dad. And when I woke up from my sleep, I wanted to pray about the dream, and I started to seek what the dream meant. And going into that space of prayer, I knew it was time.”
In that moment, Choppa said he realized his purpose. That dream wasn’t about destruction — it was about transformation. In his words, it was time to step into “NLE the Great.” He explained that sometimes God sends visions that look dark, but they carry light behind them.
He Admits The Dream Was Dark — But Still Divine
When Choppa first had the dream, he didn’t think it came from a higher power at all. “So when I first got the dream, I thought it was like a dream from not the most high, I thought it was a nightmare or something, because it was so gruesome in the dream,” he said. “It was like flesh hanging off the skull, mosquitoes, and gnats, and biting at his flesh as it was deteriorating. And it was very vivid. And it was so vivid I can remember the smell and the dream.”
The details were chilling — but instead of running from it, Choppa took it to prayer. That’s where he said the answers started to come. He believes the dream symbolized more than conflict — it marked his own spiritual battle and rebirth.
For Choppa, who’s always spoken openly about his connection with God, this wasn’t about music beef. It was about divine timing. The “KO” record, while seen as a diss, might’ve been more like a message from above.
