Do the kids gotta CHANCE? We sat down with Chicago’s own Chance the Rapper for a convo that feels less like an interview and more like catching up with family. He breaks down his new album Star Line, why betting on yourself always pays off, and how he built a lane without cosigns or labels calling the shots.
But this sit-down goes deeper than music. Chance talks Chicago history, Harold Washington and coalition politics, the open-mic grind that shaped him, and why the Black church has always been about people not power. He shares lessons on resilience, faith, and community that cut way beyond headlines.
And it’s still cousin energy the whole way through: sneaker talk, a wild Usher story, and Chance’s vision for linking Chicago to Ghana. Funny, unfiltered, and real — straight family table vibes.
