Chance The Rapper

Crazy.

Here's where I feel bad, or I feel like my space in it, and why I'm pushing so hard to get my physical CD to a fan.

Yeah, that's fire, by the way.

this was like this was our you know exchange like I made something for you here hold it in your hand you know what I'm saying take it home put it in the car burn a copy for somebody type shit and I did that hand to hand and when I

you know, got to the age I put out 10, I think I was 19, you know, SoundCloud, DatPiff, Audio Mac, all these streaming spaces were, YouTube were all like, you know, coming up in terms of like how people wanted to access music, even though the iTunes store still was dominating how people access stuff and stores, physical mechanical sales were dominating.

It was like, I could put this shit up here for free.

get way more people that aren't going to wait for getting behind a paywall or whatever.

Like, I could get these people right now to hear it, and then they'll want to buy a shirt.

You know, they'll want to buy a ticket to the show.

And there was a, like...

a dissonance when I was trying to because there was a point where I was trying to get a label deal like where I was going to label meetings right after 10 day drop who you think about going with whoever has some money nigga like I ain't have no money I ain't have no money so I'm like you know what I'm saying whoever I can get some money from and those deals were awful they're terrible and I decided like you know

Because it was costing me money just to receive the contracts.

Like, you got to have a lawyer that's just reading them.

You're getting paid just for him to read the shit.

I was like, I told them, don't send me no more contracts till after I drop my project in the spring.

That's when I dropped Asserap.

And once I dropped Asserap, I was like, oh, I don't need this shit.

I can just go on tour.

But the...

That streaming time that I was on Dat Piff and Audion Mic, which I did for Ass Rap too.
