Chance The Rapper went on BBC Radio 1Xtra’s “Live Lounge” earlier today to do an interview and a special performance, where he covered Drake’s “Feel No Ways” off his ‘Views’ album.
On the “Feel No Ways” cover, Chance added his own style to the song by switching some of the lyrics up.
“We have to let go of us to show ourselves what we can be / But that just didn’t sit well with me / Trying to make me feel a way on purpose / Throwing dirt on my name in public / You don’t feel no way on purpose / I’m messing up all of Drake’s words on purpose / Careful, careful / Be careful…You can never be too careful,” he sang.
Watch Chance cover “Feel No Ways” below.
Following the “Feel No Ways” cover, Chano performed “All We Got” off his ‘Coloring Book’ album where he offered support for Kanye West in light of his hospitalization.
“I want to extend a very special prayer to my big brother, Kanye West,” he said during the performance. “I know there’s a lot of weird folks out there, but you already know that I’m a hundred grand. I want to just extend this prayer and this love from all the way in Britain. We might come home early to see this man. Happy Thanksgiving.”
Watch below.
Could Chance be taking a shot a Drake with the “weird folks” and “hundred grand” comment?

President Obama’s term is coming to an end. On Tuesday, Obama hosted his final State Dinner at The White House and was joined by Chance The Rapper and Frank Ocean.
Both rappers showed up with someone special, a parent. Chance brought his father, who worked behind Obama in the past when the President was a senator in Chicago.
Chance The Rapper didn’t need the help of any dread-heads to stop an over-excited stage rusher that ran up on the stage at his show in Miami.
The Chicago rapper was performing at the Fillmore in Miami Beach last night as part of his “Magnificent Coloring World Tour,” when a fan ran on stage and attempted to hung Chance. Lil’ Chano reacted quickly and slammed the man to the ground until security got him off the stage.
Watch below.
You don’t want “No Problems” with Chance, big fella.
Chance The Rapper joined Power 106’s “The Cruz Show” to talk about several topics including a collaborative album with Kanye West, being independent, his VMA moment with Beyonce, and more.
The conversation kicks off with talk of how much he’s been able to accomplish being an independent artist and not needing to be signed to be major. He also shared a story of when he met with L.A. Reid and his father called him and told him to not “sign anything.”
One of the major topics of the interview was the highly-anticipated joint project with Kanye West titled, ‘Good Ass Job.’
“I remember watching a video a long time ago where he was explaining how you have your College Dropout and then you go back and you have your Late Registration and then you finally get your Graduation and then after you graduate, you have to go get a Good Ass Job,” he said. “That was a thing in my head forever.”
When asked for the release date Chance responded by saying, “It’s definitely far from done, It’s something that gets brought up in conversation once in a while.”
He then alluded to Kanye currently working on his collaboration tape with Drake, admitting he hasn’t heard any of the songs yet, but he’s sure it’s all he’ll be listening to when it drops.
Catch Lil’ Chano on his “Magnificent Coloring World Tour,” going on until November 21st.
Shoutout Chance for being a real one and messing with LA’s No.1 hip-hop station, Power 106.
S/o @Power106LA Love you guys, no one treats me better, and whooole up.. Did y'all play Blessings on LA Radio!?! CAN YALL PLEASE RUN IT BACK
Lil Chano along with Lil Wayne and 2 Chainz went on “Ellen” to perform “No Problem” and trashed a record label in the process. Wayne took the trashing of the record label a little further, by going in on his former label, Cash Money.
Weezy tweaked the lyrics in his verse by rapping, “If Cash Money tries to stop me / I’ma let ’em rob me / Yeah, right! Like Ryan Lochte.”
Safe to say the Weezy, Cash Money beef isn’t going to be over any time soon.
We all know yesterday was “Bey Day” as in Beyonce’s birthday. Bey and Jay-Z celebrated some of her birthday by attending Budweiser’s Made In America Festival in Philadelphia, PA.
Chance The Rapper sang Queen Bey “Happy Birthday” for her 35th as an image of the two at the MTV VMAs appeared on the jumbotron behind Chance. The Chicago rapper showed his love by calling her “auntie.” Aww.
See other artists who wished Bey a “Happy Birthday” on social media below.
Chance The Rapper went on ‘Good Morning America’ to chop it up with Robin Roberts about his mom, his Muhammad Ali tribute at the ESPYs, President Barack Obama’s birthday party last week and being nominated for and MTV Music Video Award. He then proceeded to perform “Summer Friends.”
During the regular season players are at each other’s throats, but during the Olympics everyone is united as one. Chance The Rapper teamed up with Nike for “Unlimited Together” to pay tribute and show support to Team USA. The Chicago rapper hits high notes on his wordplay as he preaches unitedness of the world’s best basketball players. In the video you will see Kevin Durant, Carmelo Anthony, Jimmy Butler, Kyrie Irving, DeMar DeRozan, Maya Moore, Diana Tuarasi and Elena Delle Donne.
Earlier this week two Future songs were leaked and today Chance The Rapper’s “Living Single” featuring Big Sean, Jeremih and Smino has also been leaked.
The ’90s sitcom-inspired song has a mellow feel with a super colorful vibe.
Sean Don rhymes about being young and single and getting his girls mixed up while Chance touches on being sprung. Jeremih puts his touch on the hook with solid vocals that are remiscent of the ‘Living Single’ show’s opening credits.
Although the song sounds like it was ready for release, Big Sean tweeted saying it wasn’t and expressed his frustration over the leak along with Chance.
Damn "Living Single" was actually something I was workin on for my album, sucks when people leak something not ready n spoil 4 da listeners
The Game has always been a major advocate for change on social issues in America. Just last week he along with Snoop Dogg and Problem led a peaceful rally in LA and met with the Mayor, Eric Garcetti and LAPD Chief, Charlie Beck in hopes of unifying LA.
This week, Game joined Power 106’s J. Cruz and Yesi Ortiz for a special edition of #KnowledgeIsPower, where he along with Nick Cannon, Dr. Abdullah, and Wendy Carrillo talked about the ongoing race issues in America and the definition of #BlackLivesMatter.
Following the conversation Game delivered a very powerful spoken word speech that he tirelessly worked on and fell asleep writing “so, it may sound unfinished at the end.” Read the lyrics to the unnamed piece below.
Game’s Spoken Word Lyrics
The problem started with our fathers being forced to sell drugs to our own people given to us by the same government that locks us away in cages. Taking black men out of the ghettos they were put in and leaving the black woman and child alone to survive in a world with little or no resources because they lack the strength instilled upon man by God who as our creator knowing which roll the male species will play in building of what we now know as the earth. We were put here to share this one race, the human race, but over time the devil in his hatred of God as caused a wedge between man and the earth or a glitch in the matrix as some would say causing a ripple in the bloodlines of Black, White, Asian, Spanish and Indian cultures causing a segregated lifestyle in which the minority, yes the minority, it being us, African-Americans has surfed the most in all areas deemed inhumane from being slaves tied in chains to slaves hung by gangs.
These gangs, the American government, and KKK are now equal to African-Americans when we roll up and pull out a KKK. But who are we pointing our guns at? Each other, our sister and our brothers, but we scared, yeah we scared to point it in the direction of others. But the white man he’ll walk in church and kill our aunties and our mothers and we just lay down in streets cold and stiff under white covers. The same covers the Klu Klux Klan wore over their over heads to do us in then we get pulled over by the police and they wonder why we got guns because you ain’t gonna shot us man.
We want to defend ourselves like Mutombo, we want to be at home reading our children Micky Mouse and Dumbo, we want pardons by Obama before he gone, so we make it home just in time for grandmothers gumbo, but it won’t happen cause even Barack don’t have the freedom that he wants. He in the white house with black skin, I’d rather be out in the front, but his daughters, beautiful young black queens, living the American dream while our daughters are on the other side of the fence getting pregnant in their teens and I do not blame our President for sh**. I blame the government for trying to ease the black man since our existence.
This fight has been fixed it is a trap, yeah it is a trap black man, set up so we can never be as rich as Bruce Wayne that only leaves us with Batman, a character in a mask that has to hide his identity. Do all the work for police killing minorities saving them time and a whole lot of energy and we got enemies, we got a lot of enemies government want to see us all in the penitentiary trying to put the slave black in a n*****. You know they’ll murder us. Look how they did John Kennedy. So black man please put the blunt down, the lean and the Hennessy. It’s time to father our future so our existence is more than just a memory.
CHANCE HONORS MOHAMMAD ALI AT ESPYS
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c3Pu-iJV0vs
Chance The Rapper flawlessly paid homage to Muhammad Ali with a real soulful tribute at the ESPN ESPY Awards. In the process, Chance also debuted a new song while Ali’s greatest moments flickered on the jumbotron.
“Ain’t nowhere greater,” he sang. “Ain’t nowhere brighter / Ain’t nowhere better / Ain’t no one prettier / Ain’t no one wiser / Ain’t no one better.”
Chance then proceeds with the touching chorus: “I was a rock/ I was a rock and roller/ Back in my day/ But now I’m just a rock/ I was a rock and roller/ Back in my day/ But now I’m just a rock/ I was a rock.”
On stage joining Lil Chano was Jamila Woods, Peter Cottontale, Teddy Jackson, Donnie Trumpet and a full choir that added depth and emotion to the performance.
See Chance’s pre-performance warm-up with NBA MVP, Steph Curry below.

RICH HOMIE QUAN BLOWS BIGGIE TRIBUTE
The best way Rich Homie Quan honored the Notorious B.I.G. last night at VH1’s Hip-Hop Honors, was not by performing “Get Money,” but by wearing a Coogi sweater and a pair of Timberland boots.
Quan hit the stage with Lil’Kim to honor Big Poppa but was better off staying on the sidelines. Not even sure why Quan was picked to honor Biggie. I can think of atleast 10 other guys who would’ve fit that bill better.
It is clear that the hip-hop world is feeling “Some Type Of Way” after watching that horrendous tribute. Check out some of the Internet’s reaction below.
Kobe Bryant celebrated his final NBA season with an epic 60-point game. On Thursday he was awarded with the “Legend” award at the Nickolodeon’s Kids Choice Sport awards.
Bryant was brought on stage by Zendaya to receive the award.
Following his motivating speech at the event, he was covered with golden slime. The Black Mamba matched the 16 NBA championships he won in his career with the slime.
Watch the full event on Nickolodeon tomorrow night.
Last night Chance The Rapper flawlessly paid homage to the greatest boxer ever, Muhammad Ali with a real soulful tribute at the ESPN ESPY Awards. In the process, Chance also debuted a new song while Ali’s greatest moments flickered on the jumbotron.

Chance The Rapper has really evolved as an artist, but it is no question he’s always had talent.
