In the latest segment of CNN's "Chicagoland" show, Save Money emcee Chance The Rapper details the inspiration behind his mixtape track “Paranoia” and how the Windy City’s violence has touched him personally. He says,
“There’s a lot of Chicago influence that I put into the music—Soul, Jazz influence, Rock influence, House music—just a lot of sounds that stem from Chicago, the Chicago Hip Hop scene.” “It’s very chill right now, especially in comparison to the way Chicago is.”
The video also touches on the death of Chance’s good friend Kevin Ambrose, who was gunned down last Spring while Chance was in the studio recording Acid Rap.
