Less than a week after releasing the album, NLE Choppa is back with the deluxe.

NLE Choppa’s keeping his foot on the gas with the release of Cottonwood 2. Less than a week after his sophomore album dropped, the rapper returned with the official deluxe edition with an additional nine songs. With the original tracklist in tact, Choppa brings on a few more collaborations and solo tracks to extend the project. The Sexyy Red-assisted “Slut Me Out” remix appears on Cottonwood 2. He previously released a video for the record that went viral. Additionally, the tracklist includes “Clyde & Dodo” ft. Gino 2x.

The project also finds NLE Choppa diving deeper into his appreciation for the UK drill scene. He previously made a splash with the release of “In The UK,” an impressive homage to British slang and culture, fused with his Memphis styles. He ups the ante with collaborations alongside ArDee on “Envy,” and Russ Millions for the already-viral record, “Shake It.” Additionally, “God Did” star Fridayy also holds it down with NLE Choppa on “Will Not Lose.”

NLE Choppa Unleashes The Deluxe

The release of Cottonwood 2 already came with a stacked tracklist. NLE Choppa came through with new collaborations alongside features like Lil Wayne, Rick Ross, Fivio Foreign, Kevin Gates, and more. The collab with Weezy, specifically, appeared to be something on his bucket list. Just ahead of the release of “Aint Gonna Answer,” Choppa shared a video of himself giving Lil Wayne his flowers. On Wednesday, Choppa appeared alongside Wayne on stage in Boston where he gave him a custom chain.

Hopefully, Choppa plans a tour next. The Memphis-born rapper has shared footage of crowds singing his latest songs back to him word-for-word. NLE Choppa is evidently preparing to elevate his career to new heights, especially after aligning himself with Lil Wayne and exploring international sounds.
