Chance the Rapper getting CNN coverage, "his gritty music has earned him praise nationwide."

[Mr. Somebody]

Why does Chance get so much hate? I think dude is dope and I could give a fukk who he's related to, who he knows or what he looks like. How many folks have listened to Acid Rap? It's gotta be one of the best tapes that came out last year. And again with this "industry plant" shyt, cut that shyt out, there ain't nothing wrong with maximizing your exposure through appropriate channels. Ya'll making it like he ain't got talent, like he Milli Vanilli or somebody. He's called an industry plant because he's been afforded the same luxury as 50, Snoop, Lauryn Hill and countless others who were able to maximize their exposure?

I challenge all of ya'll over the course of the next year to just listen to music, pick a couple new artists randomly and just listen with your ears. Don't google them to see what they look like or where they from or any of that other superficial shyt, just listen to the music and judge based on that alone. I guarantee you it's fun.

I listened to acid rap and i didnt like it. I thought the production was OK though.

 

[CarltonJunior]

Chance is just like ODB was, you messed wit it or you didn't

 

[NotaPAWG]

Fair enough

 

[Mr. Somebody]

Fair enough

His voice is horrible and i find his image to be to moist.

You know that little sniggly voice Wayne makes when he giggles. I feel like im hearing someone rap like that.

I mean, I guess so. I only have Acid Rap, I thought it was pretty decent. Yeah, he's weird, I get that, but he makes some good songs. I only commented in the thread because dudes in here bringing up the "gay agenda" when dude just making music he wants to make.

 

[Street Knowledge]

He don't even have a hit song though

Also at this industry plant shyt, these conspiracies really are the products of people who can't accept that the actual truth is pretty boring and explainable.

no, industry plant is a marketing scheme. Its not a conspiracy theory...its how labels push a lot of artist nowadays.
Its certified real.

 

[*L*E*G*A*C*Y*]

alright, I listened to some tracks of his. How this dude like 22 or something and making this boring retirement home rap? His music isn't bad, but it's so boring...

all of those artist came up because of their talent...they got the streets buzzing because they were a breath of fresh air.

The backlash is this dude is getting on the same way as Macklemore...actually, its worse than Macklemore, because Macklemore actually had a catchy hit record that was getting past along...this Chance cat doesnt have a hit record.

I listened to some of his stuff on Youtube and its just not me.
and im an OG "hipster"...I know how lame some of these cats that listen to rap are.

 

[Danie84]

I have yet to hear one song from this industry plant, yet he's on CNN already

 

[g-ice]

What?

Gritty music from Chance

There are no words for this blasphemy
