So according to Chance stans in this thread(cant believe they even exist on this site), Chance is doing a bunch of tours and shows therefore he doesnt need to release music. They act like he's some veteran who has a catalog he can sit on. In reality, he's a flavor of the month rapper who got gassed to oblivion over the past year and I have yet to see him take it to that next level in the fashion similar to rappers who were once in his place like Kendrick.

I personally thought he'd drop an album or something this year and blow up like ive seen so many industry plants do before but at this point I see his peak being somewhere along the lines of Tyler The Creator or Gambino which isn't bad at all, but the way I saw nikkas gas him I thought he'd be the next Kendrick.
I think you're confusing a fan with common sense who can use Google, and a "stan." As we said before he has had features this year, along with a freestyle, a cypher verse, radio interviews, all while touring. He's doing what any rapper who is starting to build a national fanbase would do, and that is to support it and grow it. He's been popular for almost two years, and I don't think Tyler, the Creator nor Childish Gambino have reached their peak (not that either of them are ina rush to, they both have television shows, and endorsements and Donald Glover does about 100 other things.) I have doubts he's an "industry plant" or whatever that means, because he's oddball and working with a forumla that isn't getting him *that* popular, just popular enough.

Yeah that's just it. Youre talking about entertainment... Im talking about art motherfukker.

Quality art requires patience..

Oh we talking art now?

is art not entertainment? :lupe:

and no, quality art does not require "patience"... Jay made the blueprint in 2 weeks, 7 Day Theory got made in a week..

Chance the Rapper must have some Magnum Opus on deck since it's been over a year since Acid Rap right :smugfavre:


Just cause you aint dropped shyt in forever, don't mean you gonna drop some hot shyt... word to Papoose.

Art and entertainment are one and the same, but ideally art would be considered the ultimate purpose.

Yeah different artists have different creative processes, but when the fans put pressure on artists to create constantly and stay relevant, then their art is devalued.

I could give a fukk about a rapper who caters to the industry with some color-by-numbers bullshyt. Who is actually pushing the boundaries? that's what matters.

These days, when I really get the chance to sit down and listen to an album.. Im trying to get to that astral plane, bruh. Im trying to get high and transcend the nihilism of everyday life. So I can't be listening to everyday music..

Chief Keef has more views from Don't Like, than all of the videos Chance has uploaded..

Dont Like is Chiefs biggest hit and he had a video.

The videos i'm talking about for Chance don't have videos, just audio, thats pretty impressive.

Just follow the clues, large hipster fanbase, critical acclaim and songs that sound like something Kendrick on acid would make, hes the next big star up.

:what: he's been droppin songs on his damn soundcloud and doin guest features all over the fukkin place. Of course when your on fukkin tour you don't got to drop music :skip: Kendrick was silent forever and what did Ye drop on his Yeezus tour? What about Jay Z? Drake got you nikkas spoiled and impatient ready to ride the net wave of whoever's poppin.
You sound dumb as fukk comparing the position he's in to nikkas like Drake, Jay and Kanye who have several years worth of ALBUMS to hold their fans over. Chance The Rapper is new, he dropped his last full length project almost 2 years ago, idc how many shows he does.. he's not in a position to sit on it and drop whenever he wants because he'd rather do shows, fans will get impatient and turn on u in the blink of an eye. Do you realize that ever since Chance became famous he hasn't dropped ONE project to capitalize off of his buzz? He dropped Acid Rap before all of the hype and nothing followed.

Thats like 50 Cent getting signed and not dropping his debut album until 2005 and no mixtapes or anything in between.

So many delusional cats in this thread. Yall in here saying a year and a half isn't a long time for a new act with only 1 notable release under his belt, i mean what planet are you on? :dahell: Citing "an ADHD generation" as a counter, what kind of weak cop-out is that? :aicmon: Dude doesn't even have Asap, Kendrick or J-Cole type of hype to be playing like that. I'm not even saying he needs to OD like your average internet rapper, but tracks every now and then, just to remind dudes he's still out there putting in work would make sense. At the end of the day, no fukks are given :yeshrug:. It's just funny the lengths y'all are going to defend this dude:heh:

:drizzywtf:Thats my point exactly, theyre acting like were talking about Jay Z or some shyt with 10+ albums. This nikka has 1 critically acclaimed mixtape that came out in the beginning of last year and were going on 2015.
