CHANCE THE RAPPER — Coloring Book
About This Event
Chance the Rapper (Chancelor Johnathan Bennett) broke through as an independent voice with 2013's Acid Rap, a mixtape whose loose structure and melodic instincts helped define a generation's approach to the format. At SummerStage he brings that mixtape-era spontaneity and an emphasis on rhythm and hooks to a larger audience; his live work generally favors clarity and community over spectacle.
