Chance the Rapper
Chance the Rapper brings his milestone 2016 mixtape *Coloring Book* back to the stage for a 10-year anniversary celebration at Wolf Trap’s Filene Center. The independent hip-hop pioneer, who made history as the first unsigned artist to win a Grammy, revisits the project’s breakout anthems like “No Problem” and “Same Drugs” in what promises to be a high-energy, nostalgic performance. The evening will combine his signature gospel-infused rap with the iconic songs that defined a generation—a retrospective that, as the artist’s own lyric suggests, will replay in your head “All Night.”
