Chance The Rapper Hilariously Disses Drake, Praises "Family" In New Video

When last we heard from Chance The Rapper, he was talking about Chicago violence and transcending it. With his new video for "Family," a track off of his 10 Day mixtape, Chance, along with collaborators Kids These Days emcee Vic Mensa, and Sulaiman, alternates between poignant life advice (Sulaiman: "How you finna see the clouds if you've never seen dirt") and hilarious Drake disses (Chance advises: "Sing all you want, just don't Drake on they ass"). The humor, while displaying a strong anti-Aubrey bias, helps the do-gooderisms of the whole thing go down better. Chance headlines the Metro in November. His new project Acid Rap is forthcoming.
