Chance The Rapper is the first up in the freestyle series from the Freshman class of XXL.
“I feel ecstatic. On top of the world. I feel big but not in the sense of, like, height or weight, but colossal. It’s a step that you gotta take, you know what I’m saying? And there’s a million rappers that all want that spot, so it’s a big deal to be able to represent a space in music as one of the Freshmen. And it’s also a big deal for me because I’m unsigned, no publishing, no recording deal. It’s a really organic thing that’s being appreciated.”
