Is Chance the Rapper the GOAT 'Give Back to Your Community" Rapper

[GoldenGlove]

In terms of rappers that empower and give back to their communities... who's done more than 23-24 year old Chance the Rapper?

Coli loves calling him a plant, but this 'plant' used the connections he's made over 2 million in donations to Chicago Public Schools.

Who's done more for their hood at this age?

[Kenny West]

Yes.

Chance, cole and kendrick are real af to me for trying to use their influence for good AT THE HEIGHT OF THEIR CAREER. That last part is so crucial. Most rappers only care when they way pas their prime. Kendrick took a big risk releasing TPAB when he did, could have polarized himself in the wrong direction.

Kendrick and Cole def aren't just talking a good game with their music. It's been well documented that both are giving back to where they came from... I put Chance in the title cause he's only 23 and making bigger moves in terms of empowering his community more than anybody that I can remember.

Kanye's moves have been more behind the scenes, but who's got 2 million to go towards schools in any city? Not just Chicago...

He's older, but Talib Kweli really gives back heavy.

Sidnote: His Twitter feed is GOAT . He stays calling out racist and shytting on them.

I don't doubt it. A lot of these guys do, but Chance is taken it to a level I haven't seen before

Most rappers do these things that Chance is doing.

Chance charity gets highlight and promoted cause its apart of his image

True... but nobody's doing it as big.

Chance has mastered the ideology of OPM (Other People's Money)

2 Million to CPS last month, I've never seen no shyt like this ever... prove me wrong
