Power 106’s “Up Next” continues to bring the hottest and most talented artists to our exclusive performances. Recently, hip-hop rising star NLE Choppa joined Bryhana and DJ E-Man in our private studios, performing his popular hits and sitting on the hot seat to discuss his rise to stardom. The intimate setting, sponsored by Nissan Infiniti of Downtown LA, Pro Club and Dr. Pepper: Strawberries and Cream, provided lucky Power 106 listeners with a private performance they won’t forget.
Before the music took over, NLE Choppa sat down with Bryhana to give us a glimpse into his journey from Memphis to stardom. He didn’t hold back, sharing the challenges he faced growing up and being seen as a problem child.
“I was one of those kids who was always in trouble,” he told Bryhana. “When I looked in the mirror I was like, ‘Yo, I’m a mess up.’ or ‘I’m not the kid my parents wanted me to be.’”
