Chance The Rapper might wear a number of different hats; songwriter, actor, humanitarian, etc. However, it seems like he might need to change his name to Chance The Hero after his latest revelation.
As 2018 came to a close, almost everyone found themselves looking back on the events of the previous twelve months, and of course, Chance The Rapper was no exception. Taking to Instagram on New Year’s Day, the 25-year-old shared his story of saving someone from a burning car.
As Complex reports, Chance explained that the incident in question happened back on April 1st, which just so happened to be Easter Sunday.
“Basically I was driving to church dolo, about to go south on lakeshore [drive] and another car drives into the wall in front of me goin like 90 mph comin off the exit,” Chance The Rapper explained.
“I was the only person out there when it first happened and his car was on fire so I had to break his window take off his seatbelt let his seat back and pull a whole grown man out the car unconscious.”
