Who doesn’t enjoy Chance the Rapper and his beautiful voice?! Chancelor Johnathan Bennett, known professionally as Chance the Rapper, is American rapper, singer, songwriter, actor, and activist. The genre of his musical career includes Hip Hop and R&B. Born in Chicago, Illinois, Chance first released his debut mixtape 10 day in 2012. By 2013 he had gained mainstream recognition with his second mixtape. By 2016 he had earned three grammy awards, including the award for best rap album, and peaked at #8 on the Billboard 200. Alongside of his solo career, Chance is a member of the Chicago collective Savemoney, and is the vocalist for the band the Social Experiment. He is also involved in social activism in the Chicago community where he resides. When Chance the Rapper came about, I wasn’t particularly a huge fan, but as the years went on and I started listening to his lyrics I adapted into a his style. For those who watch Netflix, he is also now on Rhythm + Flow where he actually chooses rappers from his home town to enter a competition. I personally enjoy it but I know his taste isn’t for everyone. What I love the most is his hat he always wears that has #3 on it. Three is my lucky number and of course I own one myself. Shocker I kn0w!

Some of my favorite songs by Chance the Rapper includes: “No Problem”, “Cocoa Butter Kisses”, “Cross Me”, and “Hot Shower”.

The “3” hat has become so iconic because of him, talk about some nostalgic songs like cocoa butter kisses and juice. Highschool summers all over again!
