Chance the Rapper Confirms his Childish Gambino Collaborative Mixtape

With everyone focused on Drake‘s performance on SNL last night, Chance the Rapper decided to break the Internet with a very personal encounter on Reddit’s HipHopHeads thread. While there, Chance, who is known to frequent reddit quite often, held an exclusive AMA for HipHopHeads, which can be found below.

Here’s what he said when asked his favorite record:

“How Great.” The setup, the children’s choir, Jay [Electronica]!!!!! My grandmother passed away a few weeks before we recorded, and my cousin Nicole sang “How Great Is Our God,” and it crushed me, a week later I had her come to the studio. [We] recorded her and, Francis did his harmonizing thing. It’s so close to my heart.

He also spoke on his records with J. Cole:

Reddit: What is with you and J Cole and the unreleased music? I know “Perfect Thotty” will never be released, but I want to hear whatever else you guys were cooking up!

Chance: Does it count if he produces it?

On why “Grown Ass Kid” never made the album:

“GAK” had sample clearance issue; bummed it leaked. Bummed it didn’t get cleared. It would’ve been track 11. Blessings are kind of one thing on the album, they both are meant to prepare you for your day and your blessing.

Finally, when asked about if a Childish Gambino and Chance the Rapper project still exists, Chano replied “Yes.” So, there’s that! Stay tuned for more!
