NLE Chopppa has explained what it was like texting Ice Spice, and said the Bronx-bred rapper was “beautiful.”

“Ice Spice beautiful, man,” Choppa said, adding that Ice Spice’s popularity was partially due to her being “marketable.” Lee then asked if Choppa ever slid into Spice’s DM’s.
“I got her number, I hit her personally, we talking about music,” Choppa continued. “I don’t text her no more. She changed her number so I like from a distance. She do a lot of big things…Would I date her?…If she wanna go.”
NLE Choppa infamously named one of his new singles “Ice Spice,” which caught the attention of the “Princess Diana” rapper herself last November.
The Memphis rapper took to Twitter to reveal the song’s cover art, which features a cartoon version of Ice Spice inked up in all of NLE Choppa’s unique tattoos. “She thought I was feeling her. She was right,” Choppa wrote. “What y’all think?”
Ice Spice got wind of the track, and needless to say, she didn’t seem too flattered by the shout-out. “N-gga feenin gotta play it cool,” Ice Spice responded.
Choppa responded to Spice’s comments in a since-deleted tweet that read, “What jayda said these n-ggas Been on my bodyyyyyy.”

“I still got the skateboard, the one I was using for the protest and even the two days after the protest I skated each of those days so for sure it’s a hobby I picked up,” Choppa said. “Every time I skate, I’m gonna remember bro and always put on for him and that I just appreciate him.
“Even though he passed away in a negative manner…the ripple effect he sent throughout the city for sure touched me and it’s something that I wanna take full accountability for as far as just a new hobby, doing something new, doing something he wanted me to do.”

He added: “I’m actually in the midst of I wanna start a foundation, a charity around skate for Tyree. Not only do I wanna give the proceeds to Tyre and his family I wanna give it to his son. I pray that when that child grows up they can differentiate between what’s real and what’s not, and what’s real is giving back and making sure a positive light is shown over their life.”
