For a new ‘ESPN The Magazine’ cover story.
Fresh off his recent Grammy success, Chance the Rapper is making the media rounds and ensuring his name stays in headlines. Following news of an expansive spring tour, the Coloring Book artist opens up about Chicago, Trump, his music and more in a newly-released interview for ESPN The Magazine. Sitting side-by-side with Chicago Bulls player Jimmy Butler for a new cover story, Chance had the following response to Donald Trump’s recent tweet about sending “feds” to Chicago:
I hope he’s coming in to do some type of federal overturn of our state and city budgets in terms of schooling and housing … I’m tired of n*ggas talkin’ about Chicago like it’s a Third World country. Like, that it’s not a place of booming business with a very successful downtown and all types of new development. It sounds like he was announcing he was going to war with Chicago. I don’t like to look at sh*t through that lens … I can only expect that he means he’s gonna, from a federal level, help out with, you know, the teachers’ strike and the union issues. I don’t like to think that he, you know, said what he meant or meant what he said.
