Sneak Peek: Chance the Rapper Teases Epic DJ Premier Collaboration from Upcoming Project!
Chance The Rapper is teasing fans with a glimpse of what’s to come on his upcoming project Star Line by sharing a snippet of a new collaboration with DJ Premier. The Chicago rapper took to social media to unveil a 32-second clip of unreleased music where he flows over production from the legendary Preemo.
The track, titled “Together,” delves into Chance The Rapper’s reflections on family life and cherished memories with loved ones. In his lyrics, he reminisces about keeping the family bond strong and moments shared with relatives.
Sampling The Intruders’ “Memories Are Here to Stay,” the song “Together” evokes a sense of nostalgia and warmth. This classic track by DJ Premier was also used in Common’s iconic 2000 song “The 6th Sense.”
While Chance teased the release of “Together” with a caption hinting at “next week,” it remains unclear whether he meant the single or the entire Star Line project.
It’s worth noting that DJ Premier isn’t the only heavyweight contributor to Star Line. Chance shared a trailer for the project featuring appearances from the likes of Lil Wayne, Jermaine Dupri, T-Pain, Lil Yachty, Vic Mensa, and Jazze Pha, among others.
Star Line has been a labor of love for Chance The Rapper, with the concept of the project dating back to 2022 when he discussed it on Sway in the Morning. Inspired by Marcus Garvey’s historical shipping endeavors, Chance shared his vision of creating a network connecting Black communities across the globe.
The Grammy-winning artist has expressed his pride in Star Line, considering it one of his most significant projects in terms of artistic vision and storytelling. As he continues to work on the album, Chance sees it as an opportunity to showcase his creative process and evolution to his audience.
Star Line is highly anticipated as it will mark Chance The Rapper’s return since his debut studio album “The Big Day” received mixed reviews in 2019. Fans can expect a blend of introspective lyrics, smooth production, and guest appearances from some of the biggest names in the industry when Star Line finally hits the airwaves.
