Hip-hop star NLE Choppa has clarified his sexuality on Yung Miami's interview/talk series Caresha Please.
Miami asked the 22-year-old rapper outright if he was bisexual, to which he quickly responded, "Uh, nah."
"It’s plenty of respect for those who [are bisexual] but I love women when it comes to intimacy," Choppa told Miami. "Me personally, I love them extremely."
He then expressed his love for everyone, especially his appreciation for his LGBTQ+ fans.
"I’m appreciative of it. I’m appreciative of it," he said of the support and love from queer listeners. "I love all people, though. I love bisexual males, I love gay males. I don’t mind them. They don’t do anything to discomfort my space [but] when it comes to my preference when I’m laying it low down, women.”
Choppa also shared why he's not afraid to show love to queer communities.
"We are told not to show love to people because they walk a different life. Who taught that s--t? Who taught that people are supposed to show hate in any instance? God don’t do that? God is love. He would never. What would God do?"
Earlier this year in April, the "Slut Me Out 2" star made headlines when he thanked LGBTQ+ fans after they showed love to his music on social media.
"I'm noticing the LGBTQ+ community showing so much love to 'Slut Me Out 2' And I Simply Want To Say Thank You.." he wrote at the time. "IDC what's normalized as a rapper, I was raised to F*ck with who f*ck with you! So thank y'all for appreciating my craft.. My music For ALL we do NO Discrimination."
And in September, NLE Choppa staged his own "coming out" moment, of sorts.
"I'm Coming Out…" he wrote in a post on X (formerly Twitter). As fans began to speculate on his sexuality, he followed up that post with a second one that read, "Out… with 'Or What' !! (OUTNOW)" and "Slut SZN Project SEPT 27."
He also performed at Atlanta Black Pride that same month.
"As a 'rapper' we've been washed to move opposite of love, as I've grown to an 'artist' I've learned to appreciate whoever LOVES your art," he captioned his performance post at the time. "I pray this post makes a difference and bring comfort to people to open there [sic] mind & heart! We all fight ACCEPTANCE no matter who & what's your battle. God is love and love brings Unity. I am a heterosexual male and if you are that and you know that then what's the issue? God bless."
