I expect very big things for Chance The Rapper.

The Chicagoan, who is yet to be release an album, was most recently featured on the new Red Hot Fela compilation and has also teamed up with James Blake on a remix.

He’s being approached by many labels at the moment and this song is a great example of his style.

“Everything’s Good” is sonically and lyrically inspiring. It’s about the optimism of a young man who comes from a bad past. At the very start of the song we hear Chance having a loving conversation with a family member and the love seems so authentic and genuine. You just don’t hear that often in rap songs.

Keep an eye out for Chance.
