*Mixtape guest appearances has the biggest artists in the industry

*Commissioned by the White Sox to design another team logo.

*Is one of the few rappers to perform on "Ellen"

He is independent but he's represented by CAA and those connections are as Hollywood as it gets: List of Creative Artists Agency clients - Wikipedia

Chance is also incredibly bright and has immediate family that has worked in politics at fairly high level. I think he's able to take advantage of networking and establish relationships with the right people. I don't think that makes him a "plant" per-se.

And he has a business manager. Plus I bet he's willing to take less money than most rappers with these endorsements while bringing just as much, if not more publicity

Great?

 

[Hersh]

can he b signed under his real name... and hust use chance as his stage name?

 

[StretfordRed]

And if he was a plant, what exactly did you mention that is supposed to be detrimental?

 

[AyBrehHam Linkin]

If you knew his connections n followed chi hip hop his rise wouldnt surprise you at all or indicate he is a plant

 

[KravenMorehead™]

[WickedGames]

People want black people to succeed but if they do too much it's illuminati or "industry plant"

Crabs

Who gives a fukk, Chance is dope. Coloring book Is an AOTY contender

 

[ChaddyLack]

Definitely slept on him at first but when I got around to taking the time to listen to Acid Rap i was floored. He's definitely dope and turned me into a fan.
