His 2024 hit project SLUT SZN dominated charts with viral singles like "Gang Baby" and "Or What," both of which climbed the Billboard Hot 100 and dominated urban radio.

Beyond music, NLE Choppa proved his versatility and cultural reach in 2024. He co-wrote, co-directed, and starred in the short film NLE Choppa Presents: The Wash, a hilarious reimagining of the 2001 cult classic, with cameos from Lil Wayne, Sukihana, and others. In the fashion world, he collaborated with DITA Eyewear, launched his exclusive Duck Boot line, walked the runway for Off-White at NYFW, and graced the cover of Paper magazine, cementing his place as a cultural force.
