“Hey guys I’ve decided to cancel the Big Tour. I know it sucks and its been a lot of back and forth with reschedules and rerouting, but it’s for the best. I’m gonna take this time to be with family, make some new music and develop my best show to date. I’m deeply sorry to anyone with a ticket who has supported me this past decade by coming to a show and rocking out with me and I feel even worse for anyone who was planning on making this their first Chance concert. Thank you all for an amazing year, and a huge thanks to my team and family for being so strong through this whole year. I promise to come back much stronger and better in 2020 and hope to see some of you guys there. I truly love you and God bless,” he wrote.

The next leg of the tour was set to kick off on January 15, 2020 at the Pechanga Arena in San Diego, Calif.

Chance The Rapper suits up for the cover of Fast Company‘s winter issue, available now.

Here’s what the 26-year-old rapper had to share with the mag:

On how he handles social media: “I’m in the business of having to use social media, and I’m of the generation that really, like, made social media what it is. So it’s something I’m on all day. All the time. I think it’s definitely unhealthy, for sure! It’s just the reality of this time.”

On his morning routine: “Today I woke up at 4. I have a fresh baby, so I wake up real early. [Otherwise I’m up] by 7 or 7:30…I’ve got to take my daughter to school in the morning. And I just wake up early.”

On the best advice he got from his dad: “He was like, ‘Hire your friends.’ There’s no reason your friends should be working for people other than you, for less than they’re worth.

On his urge to give back to the community: “[It’s] just how I was raised and my faith. It’s the exact opposite of impostor syndrome. It’s like, I walk outside sometimes and I feel like I have an abundance, and so I feel like I need to share it and serve in all [the] ways that I can find. It just feels like that’s who I am—and not in a way that’s cocky [but just that] I’m supposed to share things.”

“I love my art form because I understand every practitioner of it, whether I agree with them or not I know where they’re coming from. They want to be heard, they got something to say, there’s something they notice. They just want to be understood,” Dave said while accepting the award (via CNN). “I love this genre, it saved my life.”

FYI: Tiffany is wearing a Christian Siriano dress. Sarah is wearing a Miu Miu dress. Common is wearing a Sandro blazer and trousers.

The 26-year-old rapper hosted Saturday Night Live on Saturday night (October 26) for the second time.

During his opening monologue, Chance wore a red Chicago Teachers Union sweatshirt.

“To the teachers in Chicago, I know you guys are on strike right now. I fully support you…I just wish that when I was in school my teachers had gone on a strike,” he joked.

If you didn’t know, Chicago teachers are currently on strike to demand staff, raises and class size limits.

Chance then delivered a rap about Chicago, and played off of the city’s nickname “The Second City.”
