"The Big Day" Eventually Came

Chance the Rapper is a  scamp. His new album, “The Big Day,” was expected to drop last Friday morning. Normally, that means midnight. But midnight came and went.  He DID play an album release show in his hometown of Chicago the night before. On stage, he reiterated that the album would be bestowed upon us. “I’m not supposed to talk a lot because I got a short set tonight,” he said, “My name is Chance the Rapper, I’m very excited to be here. Tomorrow is the Big Day.”

The clock continued to tick, approaching lunchtime in Chicago. Still no album. And then, BOOM! "The Big Day" arrived, featuring appearances by everyone from Nicki Minaj and Gucci Mane (makes sense) to Bon Iver and Randy Newman (Wha?!?).

Your patience paid off because we made it our album of the week, and you could listen to on-demand as much ass you wanted. We've got a new one for you every Friday morning, give or take, so be sure to check out the LXL Album of The Week!

I always love these kids react or generations react videos, but this one adds an extra element! Can you name which year these 10 songs of the summer came out? It’s tougher than you think!
But we all know that the billboard charts don’t dictate what our personal songs of the summer are, which is why some of your favorite LiveXLive hosts and curators have compiled summer mix tapes of their top warm weather jams.
I kept things fresh and pop-friendly on Parker’s Songs of The Summer, Jess Wright is a little bit country, a little bit everything else on Jess’ Summer Mixtape, Red throws back to her perfect summer with her 1987 Ocean City Makeout Mixtape and Raymond T pays respect to the rhythm of the summer on Raymond T’s Summer Vibes!
There are even more moods to explore, so check out all our summer Mixtapes and switch them up for the soundtrack to your fun in the sun activities!
