A few days ago, HBO dropped a preview of Chicago native and three-time Grammy Award Winner Chance the Rapper speaking on Colin Kaepernick while being a guest on ‘The Shop’ starring LeBron James and Maverick carter.
Along with Chance were special guests Will Smith, CC Sabathia, Martin Lawrence, and Paul Rivera.
During the show, former San Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick was brought up and Chance the Rapper had this to say.
” I think it is tough to be in any industry and have integrity with Kap [Colin Kaepernick], he represents so much because he took so much on his back,” said Chance. When you think about Colin Kaepernick, you don’t automatically think that N**** went to the Superbowl. That’s not your first thought, that was like his second year, right? But, you don’t think about that because he took on so much.”
“His integrity took him somewhere that led him to get into his livelihood, and it was taken away, and now the humanity in him is like that is what I like to do.”
Former Yankees’ pitcher CC Sabathia also chimed in:
“I almost think it is bigger for him to be off the field and be bigger if he doesn’t play,” said Sabathia.

“Unless he goes out that mf* and shine,” said LeBron James. “That’s the one thing about us black people, we love for an mF to go out there and do that thing.”
