Chance The Rapper: I’m ‘Tired’ Of Chicago Being Seen As A ‘Third World Country’

 
By Brennan Williams

Chance the Rapper has a few thoughts regarding President Donald Trump’s plans to fix the “horrendous situation” in Chicago.

During a joint interview with Chicago Bulls star Jimmy Butler for ESPN’s “The Undefeated,” the Grammy Award winner responded to Trump’s tweet that he’d “send in the Feds” over the city’s soaring homicide rate ― which he tweeted last month ― by expressing his frustrations with the city’s frequent negative perception.

“I hope he’s coming in to do some type of federal overturn of our state and city budgets in terms of schooling and housing,” he said. “I’m tired of n***as talkin’ about Chicago like it’s a Third World country. Like, that it’s not a place of booming business with a very successful downtown and all types of new development.”
