Chance the Rapper has opened up about the challenges of co-parenting following his divorce from Kirsten Corley.
The former couple share two children and Chance appeared on CBS Mornings to talk about the current state of their family dynamic.
He said: “She’s good. Hey Kirsten! And hey, Kensli and Marli. You know, family is one of the biggest things for me, for her, for my kids, for my mom and dad. So I think the most important thing for anybody that’s having to navigate that is making sure you keep an environment for the kids where they understand that’s the priority.”
Chance also revealed that his song “Space and Time” is about his family: “I think it’s a very personal song about, you know, what we were just talking about, navigating that relationship with the mother of my children.”
Chance the Rapper recently announced a release date for his long-awaited second album Star Line.
According to the rapper’s website, Star Line will be released on August 15 and fans can pre-order the album in various formats now.
Chance has not yet unveiled a tracklist for the project but did recently drop a song with Lil Wayne and Smino although it is not yet known if it will make the album.
It will be his first album since 2019’s The Big Day which was not well received by fans.
The Chicago rapper has been teasing a project entitled Star Line for a while but announced that he was putting it back because he didn’t like how fans were talking about his work.
In a video posted on Instagram last year, the Chance laid out his issues with his followers referring to his upcoming project as “the album” and not its official title when interacting with him on social media.
“Alright, so this was the main point I was trying to make: stop calling it ‘the album,’” he said while riding on his tour bus. “And I don’t mean that in an ungrateful way. I’m grateful that people are putting in my comments, ‘Drop the album.’
“I’m not finna drop the album until y’all start calling it Star Line. I’m not gonna drop the project, I’m not gonna do these installations — I got so much shit ready. But I hope that y’all understand that.”
