Chance the Rapper has shared a new short film called Sox Day: A Day in The Life of Chance the Rapper & The Social Experiment. The 11-minute project was directed by Austin Vesely and shows Chance, Donnie Trumpet, Peter Cottontale, Stix, Nate Fox and Macie Stewart and others hanging out in the tour bus, singing along to Michael Jackson, watching a soccer game, playing football, going to sound check, riding around on a scooter, popping a bottle of champagne in the green room, going to dinner, warming up for the show, running away from the camera, performing on stage, speaking at a press conference, recapping the day with his crew, dancing, and just goofing off in general in their "Social Experiment" letterman jackets.
"See what it's like to be on tour with Chance the Rapper and the Social Experiment for the 23 hours a day they're not on stage," the YouTube description reads.
Last week, the group released a new song called "Sunday Candy" as a taste of what to expect from their upcoming album Surf, which is due out by the end of 2014. The Social Experiment also previously released the song "No Better Blues."
Chance spoke to Billboard about the upcoming release saying, "It's the first Social Experiment project. It's a big step for all of us all putting our heads together and letting Nico [Donnie Trumpet] hold the reigns and carry it. There's a lot of great instrumentation. A lot of input from cool writers. I'm already saying too much."
Chance was recently presented with his hometown of Chicago's "Outstanding Youth of the Year Award" by Mayor Rahm Emanuel, which he called "the most important award I will ever win."
