Just in case you needed another reason to love Lil Chano...
Chance the Rapper Giveth
As if we needed yet another reason to love Chance the Rapper, the recent Grammy-winning hip-hop artist gave us one on Sunday when he decided to give back to his hometown, Chicago, in the silliest, most selfless way possible. It all started with his recent trip to the movies to check out comedian Jordan Peele’s new thriller, Get Out. The film, which debuted this weekend, has been widely praised for its take on modern-day racism, comedy and good, old-fashioned horror. Chance loved it so much that he expressed his excitement (in all caps) directly to Peele via Twitter.
DID I NOT TELL YALL #GETOUT WAS INCREDIBLE!! BEST FILM ACROSS ANY GENRE IN AWHILE GO SEE IT TODAY! Cc: @LilRel4 @JordanPeele

So, what would any movie enthusiast with endless amounts of cash and connections do? Buy all of the tickets of course. Yes, Lil Chano purchased all of the open seats for Chatham Theatre’s showings of Get Out on Sunday and tweeted for the locals to come and enjoy a free screening of the film on him. Peele has been beyond humbled by the success and support of the film in its opening weekend. If box office numbers made him blush, then Chance’s actions probably brought the first-time director to tears. Don’t ever change, Chance.
All day guys, come thru! Bring whoever, it's free I just want you to see it on 87th. There's a few more showings today! #GetOut https://t.co/On2NxUopuy
