Nelly has commented on NLE Choppa dressing up as him for a brand-new video that will be released later this week and incorporates several references to the 2000s.
The Memphis rapper used Instagram on Tuesday (July 25) to post a carousel of images of himself wearing peak 2000s clothing, such as a headband, a Hardwood Classics Denver Nuggets throwback jersey, long diamond necklaces, baggy trousers, and A Bathing Ape sneakers.
NLE Choppa also sports the St. Louis rapper’s distinctive band-aid under his eye in the tribute to Nelly.
Choppa is surrounded by bikini-clad women in the majority of the photos, and he captioned one of them, “It’s Nelly Baby [cheesy smile emoji]”. Friday [emojis for popcorn, wine, and a movie camera]: “ITS GETTING HOT.”
Nelly reshared NLE Choppa’s picture on his Instagram story with the caption, “Go Up Nephew [up arrow emojis][fire emoji],” to which Choppa replied, “Nelly Approved [green checkmark emoji].”
