Chance the Rapper Plans ‘Magnificent Coloring World 2’ Event in Chicago
Ten months after Chance the Rapper took Chicago-area fans on a fantastic voyage into his Magnificent Coloring World, the rapper will host a second event this weekend at an undisclosed Windy City location.
“I’m only sending invites to the folks who know all the words,” Chance the Rapper tweeted Thursday of the event. “Check your emails tmw AM.”
On Friday, Chicago-area fans began receiving emails from SoundCloud notifying them of their invitation to Magnificent Coloring World 2. The streaming service selected worthy fans by identifying “0.001% of Chance’s listening fan base,” since the rapper’s Coloring World was a digital-only release.
No other details regarding Magnificent Coloring World 2 were revealed, although Chance the Rapper remarked on Twitter, “I’m praying that I could get just one person from @netflix to come to Chicago for the next two days.”
In May 2016, a week after Chance dropped his Best Rap Album Grammy-winning Coloring Book, the rapper transformed Chicago’s Goose Island Brewery into a Willy Wonka-esque carnival complete with an oversized chessboard, a test-your-strength hammer, Connect 4 and a football toss.”
While Magnificent Coloring World presented fans with a bonanza for the senses, it didn’t actually provide a Chance the Rapper performance as the event instead featured Coloring Book played over the brewery’s sound system.
