Chance The Rapper Says He's Working on a Song with Stephen Colbert

Chance The Rapper Says He's Working on a Song with Stephen Colbert

Chance The Rapper took a break from his Family Matters Tour to speak with Hot 97's Ebro and Laura Stylez recently, covering everything from fatherhood to Vic Mensa, his approach to mixtapes and "selling out", and more.

As Complex reports, Chance also revealed during the interview that he will be releasing a new song with The Late Show's Stephen Colbert.

“Me and Stephen Colbert have been working on a song together, and it’s gonna released very soon,” he said on air. “He’s amazing. I can’t get that deep into it, but he’s amazing.”

Elsewhere in the interview, he spoke about his relationship with Vic Mensa:

"Vic Mensa, that's my brother. He came and brought out Kanye at one of my first open mics...." 6:18 he talks about getting support from other artists "I met Vic when I was maybe 13 or 14," he later says, "We met at an open mic in Chicago, and me and Vic have always had a great relationship because we understand each other's potential in music and we've been able to push each other to the limits. I could write in the studio with Vic for hours, and go back and forth on verses and never have to put it out. That's our relationship; we're very good at pushing each other."

And about his plans to release his debut album:

“I’m working on a lot of music and a lot of individual projects right now, but my focus is eventually getting out of this trilogy of music that would be #10Day and Acid Rap and third mixtape. And eventually to get to a place where, you know, like I said: stand on top of something and look around and be like, 'This is what I do'. I’m not just rapping to rap. This is what I do....It's a project just like any other project, but this one is defining.”
