Chance the Rapper has been teasing the release of his third mixtape since he debuted the song “Angels” last October. Over the past week, the Chicago native has updated his website with an image of himself wearing a hat (emblazoned with the number “3”) which has started appearing on highway and bus stop billboards all over the city.
Last night, Chance visited The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon as the musical guest and debuted another new single from his upcoming mixtape, the gospel-influenced ballad “Blessings,” which features “Sunday Candy” vocalist Jamila Woods and gospel singer Byron Cage. More importantly, he casually revealed the release date for his latest project: May 13.
