#Chance The Rapper - Far from the Box

Chancelor Johnathan Bennett (born April 16, 1993), known professionally as Chance the Rapper, is an American rapper, singer, songwriter, and record producer from the West Chatham neighborhood of Chicago,Illinois. In his freshman year at Jones College Prep High School, Chance formed the hip-hop duo Instrumentality with a friend. At Jones College Prep High School, some of his teachers ridiculed his aspirations to become a musician. Following a 10-day suspension in early 2011 during his senior year for possessing marijuana on campus, Bennett recorded his first full-length project, a mixtape titled 10 Day. In 2013, he began to gain recognition following the release of his second mixtape, Acid Rap.Acid Rap was listed on multiple 50 best albums of 2013 lists, including 26th for Rolling Stone,12th on Pitchfork's list,and ranked 4th byComplex.It was also listed as one of NPR Music's 50 Favorite Albums of 2013. Chance embarked on his Social Experiment Tour, in Champaign, Illinois on October 25, 2013, lasting until December 19, 2013. His strong fanbase continued to fund his career without a record label, opening up time to mold a passion project in Surf and serve his Chicago community.After a year of promoting #SaveChicago to combat the city’s rising violence, Chance received Chicago’s Outstanding Youth of the Year Award. January 2015, Bennett was listed number 7 on the "Forbes 30 Under 30" 2015 music list.
In 2016, Chance co-wrote and appeared on Kanye West's album The Life of Pablo.In May 2016, Chance released his third mixtape Coloring Book to further critical acclaim. It earned him three Grammy awards, including for Best Rap Album. Coloring Bookwas the first streaming-only album to ever receive and win a Grammy nomination.
 He is currently on tour and has already sold out tickets for shows in June
He recently shared the story on how he was paid $500,000 and offered a commercial to post his album colouring book for 2 weeks on apple exclusively before a wider release in 2016.


When asked if he thought about signing with a record label ,this was his reply There's no reason to. It's a dead industry. Chance has pursued a solo artistic vision outside the usual norm of a record label. He sees himself as a mainstream artist, from studio to fans. The business  world already knows him for redefining the music businesss boundaries. By working outside the system, Chance has managed to stay closely in touch with his city, his community and his musical and lyrical inspirations.
Do you want to be like chance the rapper? Yes, then don't even think that the box exists, do not despair or be discouraged.

Every Delayed 2020 Movie Without A New Release Date

Several 2020 movies have seen their release dates delayed as a result of the coronavirus pandemic; here's every film that still needs a new one. With theaters closed down and film and TV production shut-down until further notice, Hollywood's 2020 release calendar has been all but  wiped clean on through to the middle of July  (with a few exceptions which will eventually have to move, as we'll discuss later). There's no guarantee theaters will be reopen for business by that point either, in spite of chains like Cinemark saying  they hope to resume showing new movies  that month. The New Mutants ANTLERS RUN THE WOMAN IN THE WINDOW LAST NIGHT IN SOHO SPIRAL: FROM THE BOOK OF SAW GREYHOUND ANTEBELLUM Other Movies On top of all the bigger 2020 movies in need of a new release date after being delayed, there are also smaller indie titles like  Promising Young Woman  and  Saint Maud  (both of which premiered to strong reviews on the film festival cir...

CALIFORNIA FIRE: 62,000 People Have Fled Blaze

  The evacuations have come amid a grueling heat wave, the coronavirus pandemic and air thick with smoke. The wildfires have burned through more than 350,000 acres. The wildfires that continued to rip across Northern California on Thursday have forced 62,000 people from their homes and threaten evacuations for 100,000 more. Firefighters have struggled to contain the blazes, and massive smoke clouds have harmed the air quality. A large group of fires burning in wine country west of Sacramento had grown to cover 131,000 acres, according to Cal Fire, the state’s fire authority. The agency said that, in all, nearly 350,000 acres have burned in Northern and Central California, with many fires sparked by lightning strikes in the high heat and then fanned by winds. Those conditions helped new fires sprout across the state on Wednesday and Thursday, and caused other fires to merge, complicating efforts to contain the combined blazes. Almost two dozen major fires were reported on Wednesday,...

#Yara Virus : The New Mysterious Virus Found In Brazil.

Scientists have discovered a new virus in an artificial lake in Brazil. This mysterious virus found in amoebae has been named “Yaravirus.” This latest discovery comes as the coronavirus from China continues to ravage the world. While the world scrabbles around looking for a cure for the deadly coronavirus, scientists have found another virus. Unlike the former which started in  China,  this new one comes from an artificial lake in  Brazil. Independent  reports that this virus named "Yaravirus" was found in an amoebae. It was named after "Yara" or “Iara,” which means 'mother of waters' - a mythical siren/mermaid figure from Brazilian mythology who would lure sailors underwater. Scientists are saying that this virus is mysterious because it has genes that no one has seen before. Reporting the new discovery in  bioRxiv, a  biological sciences website, the researchers wrote:  “We report the discovery of Yaravirus, a new lineage of amoe...
