In honor of Halloween, Chano and his band The Social Experiment drop off an instrumental track which boasts EDM elements and features halloween themed samples from The X-Files, The Twilight Zone along with many more. While there is no verse from Chance The Rapper, the impecible production and quick-cut samples more than make up for the lack of live vocals. This spooky new cut is credited to SoX’s Peter Cottontale. You can check out “Juke Or Treat” below.
Without warning, Chance the Rapper & longtime friend Donnie Trumpet finally released Surf. In line with the easygoing nature of the artists, the album is available for free on iTunes. The album has some legendary contributors and makes for quite an arresting experience. The experimental group (pun definitely intended) has been working on this project for a long time, with sporadic releases here and there. When Chano announced that Surf would be released within a week at the beginning of the month, fans rallied and cheered. When that didn’t happen, they released “Hiatus Broadcast” a week ago. Chance has proven that the two years since Acid Rap hasn’t slowed him down in the least. Fans looking for a full Chance album aren’t going to find what they want on Surf. Even so, the jazzy sounds and snazzy rhymes don’t disappoint, and Chance’s new aged style adds to the grace of the delivery. Check out the track listing below and treat yourself to a new kind of sound, courtesy of The Social Experiment.

Chance the Rapper & Donnie Trumpet stopped by The Breakfast Club to discuss a wide range of topics before their sold out SOBs show last night. The two Social Experiment members discussed their musical collective, growing up in Chicago, working with Madonna, social activism, and more. Still no word on when their project Surf is dropping, but they did explain the way they came up with the title. Watch the interview below.
Chance the Rapper and his musical collective The Social Experiment released a new song yesterday that was perfect for Valentine’s Day. This melodic tune with romantic lyrics takes cues from Andre 3000 (who will appear on Chance’s debut album) and is enjoyable for singles and couples alike. Still no word on a release date for their debut album Surf, or whether “Lady Friend” will make the album, but this song
will get you excited for more Social Experiment music. Listen below.
