On both appearances, Chicago’s Chance The Rapper delivered memorable performances of substantive songs, but that doesn’t seem to have translated into meaningful airplay.

Because Chance The Rapper isn’t signed to a label, he doesn’t have the resources to promote his music. Hopefully the greatness of his music, the positivity of his lyrics and the reach of his fanbase will be enough to get Program Directors and Music Directors to not just pay attention, but truly support Chance The Rapper.
