Where's his manager? Where's his hype at? Then they threw the dirt on the casket," hinting at challenges that are beyond the public's knowledge of his recent divorce.
What's more, this release marks a significant shift in Chance's music. For the first time, he hints at issues with his management, a topic he's never broached before. The song also suggests a rekindling of his creative spark. In his own words, "I just needed, I just needed somethin' I could rap on," followed by lines that speak of overcoming obstacles and finding his rhythm again.
But that's not all.
