New Music: Chance The Rapper – “Groceries” Feat. TISAKOREAN [LISTEN]

Chance The Rapper is making big moves all 2019.

The Chi-town native has been heavy on everyone’s radar since late last year. Back in November, Chance unexpectedly dropped two singles, “My Own Thing” and ” The Man Who Has Everything,” one of which was about his now-wife, Kirsten Corley.

Adding on with more to celebrate this year, Chance gave fans an unexpected surprise last night delivering a new track titled, “GRoCERIES.” The Murda Beatz-produced song features TisaKorean, and is expected to be on the album, which he has been referring to as #owbum. He played just a snippet of the track on Instagram, merely hours before blessing his followers with the full song. But in full Chance style, the release of “GRoCERIES” is followed by an opportunity for him to give back. The Coloring Book artist posted on socials that he will pay 10 people’s groceries for a whole year, if they post a video of themselves dancing to his latest release.

Aside from performing a medley of his songs, Chano covered Stevie Wonder’s classic “They Won’t Go When I Go” and presented the audience with his new poem called “The Other Side.”

“I still have all the keys that are of no use to me, They used to, though. On the other side was a mansion on a hill, complete with L.A. pools and fireplaces and a rim made specifically for people that lie about being six feet to dunk on,” he said in the poem.
