Chance The Rapper On His Similarities & Disagreements With Kanye West

CHICAGO’S NATIVE SON COVERS GQ MAGAZINE

(AllHipHop News) For many Hip Hop fans, Chance The Rapper created the “verse of the year” for 2016.

However, the bars were not from Chance’s Grammy-nominated Coloring Book.

That verse was part of the Kanye West song “Ultralight Beam” off The Life Of Pablo.

Chance is also clearly a huge fan of the G.O.O.D Music founder.

The “No Problem” rhymer has praised Ye as the greatest artist of this generation and talked about making a joint project with him.

In a cover story for GQ, Chance further discussed his appreciation for Mr. West as well as his disagreements with his musical idol.

“I don’t think I ever wanted to be like Kanye in personality, though. I think I definitely want to, have always wanted to, have his boldness or assurance in myself,” said Chance. “But I’ve definitely seen Kanye do things where I was like, ‘I’d never do that.'”

He added, “Being around Kanye, Kanye says crazier sh-t in private than he does in public, which is hard to believe because he says the craziest things in public. He does have a filter. He’s not a liar or somebody that is going to sugarcoat things when he does speak. But Kanye’s said some crazy sh-t to me where I respond, ‘No, I don’t feel you at all.'”
