NLE Choppa Freestyles Over Mike Jones’ “Still Tippin’” for L.A. Leakers
Written by SOURCE on January 31, 2022
Fresh off the release of his latest album Me vs. Me, NLE Choppa paid a visit to Power 106’s L.A. Leakers on Monday to spit a freestyle over “Still Tippin,’” the classic 2004 collaboration from Swishahouse rappers Mike Jones, Paul Wall, and Slim Thug.
“I’m still trippin’, still grippin’/Purple rag on me, still crippin’/Last n***a play, he ain’t still livin’/Really with it, you can ask the city/Won’t see Choppa unless he got a glizzy,” the 19-year-old Memphis native rapped.
The freestyle arrives just a few days after Choppa faced backlash for delivering what some fans thought to be a mediocre freestyle over the Notorious B.I.G.’s “Who Shot Ya” beat during an appearance on Funk Flex’s Hot 97 show.
NLE Choppa took to Twitter last Wednesday to respond to critics, writing, “Musically I Can’t Do Nun Right Huh? Keep The Hate, Jokes, & Criticism Coming, Ian Too Far From The Top. Tables Turn And When They Do Remember That I Told You So. WATCH THE YEAR I HAVE!!!!!!”
Released last Friday, Me vs. Me marks Choppa’s first full-length offering since November 2020, when he shared his From Dark to Light mixtape, and serves as the official follow-up to his debut studio album Top Shotta. Me vs. Me came on the heels of the singles “Jumpin,” “Final Warning,” “Mmm Hmm,” “Drop Shit,” and “I.Y.B.” as well as new collaborations with Young Thug and G Herbo.
