Nardwuar was at the Day N Vegas festival over the weekend, tracking down old favorites and first-time interviewees. Now he's released an interview with NLE Choppa, one of the very small handful of teenagers in America to have a platinum certification (for his viral single "Choppa Flow"). Reactions to Nardwuar’s questioning will fluctuate between comical disbelief and genuine shock, and in this edition Choppa couldn’t stop grinning over the Human Serviette’s investigative angles.

Choppa’s athletic accomplishments were the focus of the interview, and at one point in his football career a referee told the Memphis rapper he couldn’t score any more after already logging eight touchdowns. He also claims to have drained 10 consecutive threes in a basketball game. Watch the video above, and check out Nardwuar’s chat with recent FADER cover star, Megan Thee Stallion.
