Rapper Chance claims to have bigger voice than Trump

Los Angeles Aug 10 (IANS) Rapper Chance believes he has an influential voice in society in the US and has even boasted about having a larger platform than the current US President Donald Trump.

"I just have a larger platform than all platforms. I have a bigger voice than Donald Trump than literally anybody who works in politics " Chance said on a podcast.

"I can connect with people on the level of appealing as a person who is still being a citizen as a person who does what he wants. But I have ideas on how to voice opinions and ideas that other people just don t have " he added reports femalefirst.co.uk.

The 24-year-old also stressed on the pressure hip-hip artists have where they have to project a "hard" persona.

He did however acknowledge that the scenario is changing for black musicians like himself.

"I think there s just always been a quiet conversation and joke that if you re not hard if you re not from an impoverished neighbourhood if you re not certain constructs of a black stereotype then you re not black " he said.
