Christian rapper, Chance The Rapper is the cover story for the June issue of Ebony magazine. Inside the mag, Chance talks, listening to God and running for political office.
From Ebony:
The Coloring Book musician doesn’t believe in forcing things. So when he ventured off to Hollywood in an effort to further his career, it was his intuition that served as his compass.
“There are a lot of spaces where you feel like God isn’t around,” Chance states of his brief time in L.A. “I got some vibes. You have to listen and be aware of your discernment, and if somebody tells you to leave? Then get the f*** out of there. You’ll feel it … . You just have to listen to God.”
For all the folks wanting him to run for office, well sorry to disappoint you, but it ain’t happening.
“I would never run for any office or government position,” he told Ebony. “I’m not into it. I think politics is a reason why a lot of stuff doesn’t get done. There’s a lot of favors, and a lot of people are held back by their intentions of being re-elected or the things that they owe their party or constituents. I think when you’re in my position as an artist, I can say what I want and talk about the issues that matter.”
