Chance the Rapper becomes first independent artist to go Diamond

[Capitol]

He keeps feeding the streets

 

[Buckeye Fever]

If Chance is independent, why he threaten to have dread head níggaz in the lobby of the label?

 

[Harry B]

He was never indie.

Which label was he signed to?

 

[Sauce Dab]

Which label was he signed to?

He probably finna bring up CAA which is an agency and not a record label

 

[FINALE]

He was never indie.

Dumb talking point by haters like Budden who just want to get one over.

Chance is and has always been an independent musician.

Incredible accomplishment

 

[Harry B]

Ain't no way in hell that song actually went diamond.


People use to laugh and mock "street platinum". But that had far more validity than these streaming certifications

Billions of streams is invalid?

The money is real.

At this point, literally any label would love to say they had him signed. It's been a decade.

No record label deals have came out. Did he get a bigger than ever push for a rapper not signed to a label? Yes. In that time frame, did any rapper, independent or not work as hard as chance did on cultivating a fanbase?

At this point, past his lowest, you would think somebody would expose deals if they happened. He was purely independent with a mainstream push. It is what it is

That’s a dj Khaled songs ft chance distributed by a major label.

 

[In The Zone '98]

It's 2025. Why is he still pushing that narrative

 

[Low End Derrick]

He was never indie.

y’all keep believing this dude is a independent artist if you want to

He's not independent though.

He ain’t independent though

What label is he on?

 

[Shadow King]

An artist signed to CAA is not an independent artist.

 

[Big Boss]

Plant
