mmmmmbeeer Posted April 7, 2016 Share Posted April 7, 2016 Young folks? Hell, I'm 39yo and dig some Chance...."Acid Rap" is amazing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChiliIrishHammock24 Posted April 7, 2016 Share Posted April 7, 2016 Love Chance. Saw him a few years ago when he was included on Childish Gambino's tour. Acid Rap is a classic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackSox13 Posted April 7, 2016 Share Posted April 7, 2016 (edited) Don't know who Chance is but if he's a Sox fan and can help put more butts in the seats then I'm all for it. Edited April 7, 2016 by BlackSox13 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChiliIrishHammock24 Posted April 7, 2016 Share Posted April 7, 2016 (edited) For those who don't know Chance....here's a taste of a few songs of his that I like. And now since he's taken on a more role-model position for the youth of Chicago, he does more positive and "cleaner" songs like...

Brian Posted April 7, 2016 Share Posted April 7, 2016 Don't know his music but when I see him on talk shows, he seems down to earth and a good role model. Does a lot for the city. Those hats he's producing though...no thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jose Abreu Posted April 7, 2016 Author Share Posted April 7, 2016 I noticed that in his commercial, the retired numbers are still behind home plate. It must have been shot a while ago? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3GamesToLove Posted April 7, 2016 Share Posted April 7, 2016 QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Apr 7, 2016 -> 09:33 AM) I noticed that in his commercial, the retired numbers are still behind home plate. It must have been shot a while ago? It sounds like they are still located behind homeplate, and the mural/artwork is in addition, not a replacement. Which is a good thing.

chitownsportsfan Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 I am a massive hip hop head. IMO Chance is one of the most talented "crossover" (mainstream and backpack rap) MCs out there right now. He's Kendrick Lamar circa 2013, just waiting on the one big album that makes him a household name across the country. His flow is tight and as he matures he should be able to take his lyrics into more risque areas. Great signing for the Sox. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't care for the look at all, plus article indicates the hats will be "priced between $40 and $50". LOL, no thanks. . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChiliIrishHammock24 Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 Was on his site within the first few seconds that the hats were available. Was going to buy the black one until I noticed they were all snapbacks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
