“Man, I keep seeing the hate that ya’ll have on my girl Sexyy Red,” NLE Choppa began. “I’m just a real supporter, a real fan, I love her energy and I love her music personally. Man, ya’ll need to stop doing people like that, treating people like that. Ya’ll not gone always hear something that ya’ll accustomed to or use to. Ya’ll need people like Sexyy Red to create a balance from serious to shit that you can have fun to.”
He continued: “Ya’ll need to stop doing that girl like that. That shit ain’t right because at the end of the day, she got a child, she feeding her child, she making money and making sure that her baby straight. That’s all that matters. Ya’ll don’t know that girl, ya’ll ain’t met her. I’m just sticking up for her because I ain’t seen nobody else round this muthafucka sticking up for her, showing her all this love.”

“Ya’ll need to stop treating people like that. Like forreal. Why our own community gotta tear down our own people? Why we can’t embrace her? Why we can’t understand where she come from? Why we can’t understand her music the same way we’ll understand somebody else music? Any other male music?” Ya’ll do males like that too, but it’s mainly the women.”

NLE Choppa’s comments come as Sexyy Red recently dealt with a situation where money was thrown at her while she was performing.
According to XXL, last month, the St. Louis rapper was performing her song “SkeeYee” at the Wild Mustang Gentleman’s Club in Detroit when a fan tossed a wad of money at her while she was looking the other way.

“Aye, bitch, stop hitting me with the money, bitch, I’m not gon’ keep telling ya’ll that” Sexyy Red said in a frustrated tone.
The outlet also mentioned how Sexyy Red left the stage at Lyrical Lemonade’s 2023 Summer Smash in Chicago earlier in June after someone continued to throw items at her while she performed.
Meanwhile, Sexyy Red recently discussed with HipHopDX how her team wasn’t always sure “Pound Town” would be a hit.
“I was in the studio, and I showed it to my team, and they were like, ‘This ain’t it,’” she told DX at the 2023 BET Awards. “I said: ‘This is the one! This the one! I’m telling you!'”

She continued: “I knew. I said, ‘We doin’ this, because we like the song.’ And it’s my stuff. My fans love me for being me. I’ma drop it.”
As for the population of “Pound Town,” Sexyy Red let DX know that it was much larger than, perhaps, one might imagine. “I mean, you here, everybody here. Whatever the Earth got.”
