Chance The Rapper’s 2017 Grammy win and performance was legendary and will go down in music history. That appearance and win had gained the attention from some major labels. The New York Post reported that Chance is turning down $10 million in offers from record labels.

An undisclosed source told the NY Post, “Every label is still trying to get him. He’s making too much on his own … He was turning down $5 million advances before, and now it’s like $10 million.” Even though Chance The Rapper isn’t signed to a label, the rapper won in three categories at the Grammys. 

The undisclosed source also added, “He may do something with Apple, but not a label per se … He is going to remain independent.” Chance explained in a recent interview,”I honestly believe if you put effort into something and you execute properly, you don’t necessarily have to go through the traditional ways,” Chance added.
