Marissa Da’Nae, mother of NLE Choppa’s son Chozen, has stirred up drama by revealing that her child calls her ex, rapper EKT 40, 'dad' instead of the rapper. She accuses NLE of being absent, while his mom pushes back hard. Social media is, of course, eating it all up.
Oh, the tea is piping hot in this family feud! Marissa Da’Nae dropped a bombshell in a clip shared on Instagram by @livebitez, explaining that her son Chozen has never once called NLE Choppa—real name Bryson—'dad.' Instead, the little one sees her ex, EKT 40, as his father figure. Da’Nae doubled down on her Instagram Stories, stressing that EKT 40 is the only consistent presence in Chozen’s life. She didn’t hold back, accusing NLE of failing to step up as a parent and showing favoritism to his other kids. Get this: she claims NLE has only seen Chozen three times in 2025. Messy? Absolutely. 😤
Enter NLE’s mom, Angeleta, who wasn’t having it. She clapped back online with, “Them kids know exactly who their father is. All three of them.” Boom—defense mode activated for her son, who hasn’t chimed in publicly yet. NLE has three children total, and Angeleta’s making it clear she believes they all recognize their dad.
Social media? Losing their minds, roomies. @hardbodyprincess called out the double standards: “Yall hating on her for speaking on HER public platform about what SHE wants to say but not saying nothing about a deadbeat is wild to me……” @kei_da_g kept it real: “Kids connect with who is consistently present period.” And @_Cheynotchy shaded NLE directly: “It’s not her job to fix her son’s relationship with NLE, it’s HIS! 😂 He is the dad not creating a relationship and not being a dad!” Others speculated it’s all about NLE’s rumored wedding vibes. Eyes are peeled—will NLE finally speak up, or let mama handle the heat? 🔥
