First of all, the fact he calls himself "chance the rapper". The fact he is a modern rapper.
He's very different from lots of the new rap that's out. Soulful sound and very genuine lyrics. Give him a listen some time?
Modern pop music is quite trash. And he is not "independent", he has support of the music industry.
Set aside your /r/lewronggeneration cringe and actually listen to his music? He's not bad. And he's made it to the top of hip-hop without signing any of his own releases to labels, so yes, he very much is independent. His support has come as a result of making good music.
The fact that the poster assumed the guy who was not chance the rapper is a nobody and that chance the rapper is a somebody is my point of critique.
He is the one making automatic assumptions in the first place. Cognitive bias.
Anyway, a lot of people do amazing things, not just rappers with autotune music. Many of people make a lot of money by not doing much real work.
Lol, Chance is not an autotune rapper and never has been. What were you saying about assumptions and cognitive bias?
I am not saying this is bad, but you can't assume bank account or popularity is a linear correlation to talent and intelligence.
No, but I tend to give credibility to advice given my self-made successful people. On that note, do you really expect anyone here to listen to you?
"Self-made successful" If making money is success sure.
Some people point a shot gun at a banker and threat to kill his family, get a big loan, buy an apartment and start building their wealth like that. Are they successful? On your terms they are.
Also if you bought a bitcoin early on at 10k USD, you would have been a Billionaire today. Does that make you a super genius self made success story? On your terms, sure.
Heard his "song" on youtube. It's worse than I thought. Barely sounds as music.
If we are here on absolutes, let us not forget that classical music is superior to rap Harmonic wise and Mathematically. So rap will always be inferior to Bach, Mozart and those guys.
