Chance the Rapper continues to push musical boundaries with a new music video for 'Same Drugs' featuring a large cast of vocalists. The song features: Eryn Allen Kane, Yebba, John Legend, Francis Starlite and Macie Stewart. Chance the Rapper captures the imagination and hearts of viewers with a duet with an oversized puppet. The music video is a beautiful piece of visual art to connect with a soulful, self-destructive look at drug abuse. We suggest that any form of drug intake should be always used with caution. This video does walk a thin line between using puppets that would normally attract

SASQUATCH! Music Festival released their 2017 to a wide range of response on social media. This year the four day camping music festival taking place May 26-28 will host Twenty One Pilots, Frank Ocean and Chance the Rapper as headliners. One of the reoccurring patterns that I have seen is a large outcry of negativity on social media during the release of major music festival lineups, and seeing totally opposite behavior taking place at the actual festivals. When I saw this lineup, the first two headliners were not my style, but Chance the Rapper is one of the best

The Bonnaroo Music Festival announced their 2017 lineup today with U2, Red Hot Chili Peppers, The Weeknd and Chance the Rapper headlining the festival in Manchester, Tennessee. The booking staff is probably thinking, 'if we book big, mainstream acts, it will help sell tickets.' If music festivals were arenas and large venues in major cities, that logic might make sense. Since these festivals are different environments, music fans expect a unique lineup to check out in a unique live setting. Most of the other media outlets, are staying away from being critical on this lineup, but I want to take an

YouTube Red is amping up their original content with ads running in movie theaters this winter. Online users that watch YouTube videos can experience it ad-free with YouTube Red.

During the pitch, I mentioned that I would create a list of the top YouTube channels in Illinois to show our value in comparison to other media producers within the fifth largest state. Since YouTube does not currently have a ratings system for the channels per state, I'm going
