Potts was born to a Jamaican mother and an African-American father.[3] He was raised in Memphis, Tennessee in its Parkway Village neighborhood and attended the Cordova High School where he played basketball.[4] He began freestyling with friends at the age of 14 and started taking music seriously at 15.[5] During an unspecified time, NLE Choppa served time at a juvenile detention center.[6] He has never revealed what he was arrested for, but he claimed his time in detention motivated him to turn his life around. In an episode of his YouTube series The Rise of NLE Choppa, he said that being in detention helped him a lot and was an "eye-opener".
