Top 5 Bars from Chance the Rapper’s Career
Welcome back people to another feature for Acid Rap's Anniversary! You may have seen all of our picks for Chance's best bars on Acid, but with his body of work, what about his career? Once again, thanks for all the help and post your picks in the comment section. Now, let's get it crackin' in this bitch!
The First BarWelcome Chano
You got mailBefore Chance the Rapper, there was just simply "Chano" and his good friend Justin, "J-emcee". Together they formed Instrumentality all the way back in elementary school, and released their first known project. While that has not been found we will have to go with his earliest known rap off of "Internet Explorer" with long time friend Vic Mensa

This is an eerily start to his career considering it know rings true for him. Chance is now considered to be one of the most recognizable faces in the rap game as well as being one of the hottest features to snag up. From here on out, everything's been pretty good for Chano
The Past Builds Your FutureThey gave me 10 Days off
That's an awful lot
I was off campus, but the officer
Told the office, that he saw me from the parking lotThe perfect bar to briefly tell about one of the enormous moment's in Chano's life. It's his ten day suspension for possession of marijuana that set off his unprecedented chain of events. This fueled his imagination to create 10 Day, his breakthrough mixtape. Without that we might not know about the young Chano outside of the Chi. His scholarly lyrics mixed with his childlike flow allowed him to break into the spotlight, and, look at him now Gladys!
Acid! Get it? Acid!Damn that acid burn when it clean ya
I still miss being a senior
And performing at all those open mic events
Eyes closed, eyes closed seeing arenasAnother addictive bar from the young rapper. All of his experiences with his past project, his inner demons, and a little acid make up what many call the top mixtape of 2013

Chance showed off his array of talent no matter what the subject matter was, how he approached it, or the quality of production. Chano recorded the project while on acid, and it had to cleanse him to make this heavenly sound. Even though we all feel nostalgic at times, we grow from what we are, and everything has led him to this very moment
Tardiest of Tempos, Manifold of MetaphorsI'm a parapalegic parrot with a pair of crutches in a no fly zone
On the phone talking bout how Bush trying to disparage usAdmit it, any way you you put it, Chance has juggled tons upon tons of different techniques for rapping. It doesn't matter how sporadic the flow is or his complexity of literary devices, he manages to use his skill set to his advantage to build up his lyrics and make them one hell of an art form. This bar indicates to perfection just how deep Chano can go down his rabbit hole of lyricism, which he has done countless times
The Last BarAin't no rules n***a
IGH!Could this be the dawn of a new Chance? We know he's been going crazy with the amount of work and after such a high point, if he does something even more major he could skyrocket into being one of the most influential and competitive rappers in the game. If he hopes to progress and reach his dreams, there's gotta be "no rules" or obstacles hindering him
GET READY!!!
