Chance The Rapper's Spotify Streams Up 206% Since Grammys








Chance keeps winning.

The incredible glow up of Chance the Rapper continued Sunday night at the 59th Grammys. Chance took home Best Rap Performance for “No Problem,” Best New Artist, and Best Rap Album for Coloring Book. The cherry on top: his performance of “How Great” and “All We Got" with Kirk Franklin and a full gospel choir.
Not only is Chance currently basking in the glory of last night's victories, he is already reaping quantifiable rewards. According to The Boombox, his Spotify streaming numbers have increased 206 percent since the Grammys. "How Great" streams skyrocketed by 461 percent one hour after Chance took the stage.
He wasn't the only artist to receive a streaming boost from the Grammys: Streams of A Tribe Called Quest‘s “We The People” increased 441 after they performed the track with Anderson .Paak and Busta Rhymes.
