Chance The Rapper would be “honored” to collaborate with Tyler, The Creator, if given the chance.
Talking to fans on X on Friday (September 20), the Chicago rapper asked who they’d like to see on his forthcoming effort, Star Line. When one person mentioned Tyler or Childish Gambino, Chance jumped at the idea.
“I never worked with @tylerthecreator but I would be honored to, on whatever too really,” he said. “Production, a verse, a video. He’s a super creative. And of course want to work wit donald again too.”
He also said he’s “definitely tryna make [it] happen” when another fan mentioned collaborating with Yasiin Bey.
It looks like Chance The Rapper may have had a change of heart with Star Line, as he recently threatened to delay it due to the way that fans were talking about the project.
In a video posted on Instagram last month, the Chicago rapper laid out his issues with his followers referring to his upcoming project as “the album” and not its official title when interacting with him on social media.
“Alright, so this was the main point I was trying to make: stop calling it ‘the album,’” he said while riding on his tour bus. “And I don’t mean that in an ungrateful way. I’m grateful that people are putting in my comments, ‘Drop the album.’
“I’m not finna drop the album until y’all start calling it Star Line. I’m not gonna drop the project, I’m not gonna do these installations — I got so much shit ready. But I hope that y’all understand that.”
Chance continued: “‘Drop the album’ — that’s for all the other artists, for everybody else whose work I also appreciate. But what I’m doing is something different. It’s something very specific. It’s called Star Line.
“So if y’all gonna press me for the project, don’t put ‘drop the album’ in my comments ’cause it makes me feel like y’all don’t know what’s going on. I’ve been saying one specific phrase for like two, three years now. I’ve been saying Star Line.”
Star Line appears close to release as Chance has been hosting multi-sensory listening events for the album, which will be his first-full length offering since his polarizing 2019 debut album The Big Day.
The Grammy-winner has been teasing Star Line for a while, sharing a video earlier this year that hinted at features from the likes of Lil Wayne, Lil Yachty, Jermaine Dupri, T-Pain, Jazze Pha and Vic Mensa.
