Better to reign in Hell than serve in Heaven
sticking to the facts out of his own mouth

his dad was heavy in chi town... even works with obama and in the white house... so lets not pretend there were no connects

he signed with CAA, the biggest entertainment agency in the WORLD... that's why he was getting all these "favor for a favor" covers, awards and pub



3... and most important....


he can't be blamed for using connects... i mean who in their right mind would want to rap... have money, power and a super team... and NOT use them


so is he a plant... ehhhh... he technically still ain't signed so he's not lying

but that buzz is definitely store bought

Nobody.... literally every rapper is a "plant" or the "machine" or some other variant
"If I don't like like his music, and other people do, he s an Industry plant"

With that being said I can't get into his music.

I listened to Acid Rap and can honestly say dude is talented and creative, but it's just not my cup of tea.

I think hes talented and a good live performer...but the insane amount of hype that tape had was disproportionate as hell. Didnt make sense how he became an overnight sensation like that.

acid rap was alright. 6.5/10

no reason at all for all that hype

he has the machine behind him

yall can't tell me otherwise



i wouldn't mind seeing him live though :ehh:

We still waiting on the follow up right? Was that social experiment joint counted as a Chance album?

It's dope he's still Indy though good to see him doing his thing.

how is Chance so popular?

Acid Rap was pretty dope but that dropped like 2 1/2 years ago and he hasn't dropped a solo project since... shyt was like his first tape too
