It's definitely up there. I'm guessing if they stuck with their original 2017 release, it might have already been perched at the top.

Chance the Rapper.

And like recent years, I'm assuming the first weekend will be livestreamed on YouTube and the second weekend won't be.

Isn't Greta Van Susteren also jumping over to MSNBC next week? Thought I read that somewhere.

They must have added a note later, cause they do mention it now. Also, the physical release is still coming out on 1/13.

I've listened to a couple songs from Julie Byrne and I enjoyed it so I'm looking forward to that.

I read this in the Post this morning. Wonderful story. Them watching his concert videos was one of the highlights.

"What we like to do right now is run this little cover tune by a good friend of mine. Peace to George Michael." - Prince, 1994 MTV Music Awards Europe

R.I.P. George Michael. I hope he got his last request, which was more sex.

Ah, the days when you could live comfortably for the rest of your life based off music royalties…

"Please Auto-Tune my vocals. Give me those Travis Scott effects."

His last album, Late Nights is pretty good. Much better songs than "Birthday Sex."

*paging Jay S.*

Yay, for Noname showing up for the "Finish Line/Drown" cameo. Her project that came out this year was one of the best rap albums of 2016.

Chance is a generally positive person who's rooted in the Chicago gospel sound. He's more in the vein on early Kanye, Common, etc. But he puts his own spin on stuff.

I mean, his persona in general is happy, so I don't think it's anything different that what we've seen before.

Yeah, the album version is extended and has a nice little change-up near the end.

It ain't 10x Platinum for nothing.
