Chance The Rapper Reveals An Australian Tour Is In The Works

Staff Writer

Well, giddy up.

More Chance The Rapper Chance The Rapper

US hip hop artist Chance The Rapper has confirmed that he intends to tour Australia some time in the near future during a Reddit AMA yesterday. 

In response to a fan asking if he will be heading Down Under soon, the Chicago-born artist simply replied "YES". 

Though any concrete plans are yet to be confirmed, his seemingly-enthusiastic answer will do for now.

The 23-year-old currently has a number of shows lined up in the US until August so local fans may have to wait until late-2016 to see if a tour eventuates.  

Chance The Rapper also gave fans some hope for the joint EP he made with Childish Gambino back in 2014 which was indefinitely put on hold, confirming in the same Q&A that the material does still exist. 

His latest and third mixtape, Colouring Books, dropped just last week.
