Acid Rapper and The Man with the Falsettos

Chance the rapper also known as the acid rapper is blowing more than any artist any 2013. Even though he was not named a freshman this guy is showing both how skillful and unique he truly is. I might have gone over this before but Chance the Rapper's real name is Chancelor Bennett who was born in '93. His newest mixtape is Acid Rap which has gotten over 250,000 downloads off of Datpiff. features guest appearances from Twista, BJ the Chicago Kid, Action Bronson, Childish Gambino and Ab-Soul. In early July 2013, The Acid Tape debuted at number 63 on the Billboard Top R&B and Hip Hop Albums due to bootleg downloads on iTunes and Amazon.  He is one too look out for and is constantly proving himself to the hip hop community. 

Chance's first known mixtape was 10 day, which was released in 2012. Many of his teachers shut down his music aspirations but after a 10 day suspension he received from the school he released the mixtape 10 day.  It has received over 50,000 downloads off Datpiff, and after that he released singles with Joey Bada$$, Childish Gambino, and Hoodie Allen. He also while an high school had a hip hop duo with one of his friends and had an interest in R&B and Soul before Hip Hop.  The first album he ever got was "College Dropout" by Kanye West.


Mac Miller says he feels that his rapping skill is at in all time high.  I was very impressed by his last project and second album Watching Movies with the Sound off. He has some of the best record he has ever made on that album and you can really see the progression in his career through his projects. Mac has been releasing music since he was fifteen and now he is twenty-one. He began to really blow up from his mixtape KIDS that he released in 2010 when he was 17-18. In his latest project Watching Movies with the Sound off he has great records with great features on them. For example "Red dot Music" with Action Bronson is just a great combination of the two and another example is "Gees" with Schoolboy Q. 



Mac also has a falsetto Larry Lovestein. 
On November 21, 2012 Miller released an iTunes exclusive EP entitled You under the name Larry Lovestein & The Velvet Revival. Rather than rap, the EP features Miller crooning over lounging jazz instrumentals. He also created another falsetto name Lary the fisherman who makes and produces beats for Mac Miller. On March 4, 2013 Mac released a new mixtape solely featuring instrumentals made by Miller titled, Run-On Sentences Vol. 1 under his production alias "Larry Fisherman". I like Mac for the reason that he is always changing and really diversifying his music.  He is also a bit crazy to make these falsettos but who knows maybe they are alive... Haha
