Chance The Rapper isn’t leaving the possibility that audiences miss the release of his new album to chance this year.
The three-time Grammy winner announced he’s striking out on his ‘And We Back Tour’ in support of the forthcoming “Star Line,” which is due out Friday, Aug. 15.
While out and about, the “Holy” Hip-Hop icon is slated to perform at theaters, music centers, rooftops, pavilions, auditoriums and resorts all over North America from late September through mid-October.
That includes a stop at New York City’s Rooftop at Pier 17 on Thursday, Oct. 2.
“How about a quick tour for my closest fans?” he shared on Instagram.
Surprisingly, this run is the 32-year-old’s first official nationwide trek since 2017’s ‘Be Encouraged Tour.’ Over the past eight years, he’s lent his talents to numerous festivals, taken off on mini-treks — like his cancelled 2019 ‘Big Tour’ that concluded after just five shows — and headlined huge one-off gigs in his Chicago hometown but none of these outings have sent him all over the country.
Prior to the release of “Star Line,” his second studio album, Chance The Rapper (whose real name is Chancelor Johnathan Bennett) dropped the laid-back lead single “Tree” on July 3 after debuting the track at Bridgeview, IL’s Lyrical Lemonade Smash on June 22. He has since taken the bop to the stage at Chicago’s Soldier Field and Lollapalooza.
In regards to the record as a whole, Bennett said “Star Line” features sounds that even “if they’re not super experimental [are] based in some of the Black music that was influential to me throughout my childhood or through my travels,” according to an interview with Rolling Stone.

Chance The Rapper new music
As noted above, Chance The Rapper dropped his lead single “Tree” on July 3.
The 4.5-minute track starts slowly before a trademark Chance yelp gets the ball rolling. From there, the vocally-gifted rapper spits clever, incisive rhymes about ganja from his mom’s perspective like “she told me ‘son, don’t worry, don’t you have no shame/There’s gonna be frustration in this white man’s game/And they’re gonna have us tied up once it’s legalized/Because it is a tree.”
Later, he hands over the baton to Lil Wayne for an equally adventurous verse celebrating lighting up. In short, the upbeat single is somehow both a good time and cautionary tale.
