Chance The Rapper has announced a North American tour for his Grammy-winning mixtape Coloring Book, 10 years after its original release. ‘The Coloring Book 10 Year Anniversary Tour’ kicks off in August with the first location being the House of Blues in Cleveland, OH.
Joining Chance on stage will be many special guests and collaborators celebrating the legacy of his masterpiece mixtape, which helped shift Hip-Hop and the way mixtapes are released.
This tour provides an opportunity for a major celebration of the project that reshaped what it means to be an independent artist.

Coloring Book was the follow-up to Chance The Rapper’s Acid Rap mixtape, which was heralded years before the success of the latter. Chance’s mixtapes earned more praise for him than his albums did, so this opportunity to celebrate those projects gives Chance his flowers, in a way most artists are never fortunate enough to get.

The concern with the ‘Coloring Book 10 Year Anniversary Tour’?
While Chance The Rapper is bringing back his Grammy-winning mixtape to the celebration, the project featured a plethora of artists and collaborators that likely won’t be appearing on stage.
He’ll be able to perform the songs, but a number of iconic verses will likely be skipped. Here’s just a few of them:
Kanye West (‘All We Got’)
Lil Wayne, Young Thug, & 2 Chainz (‘No Problem’)
This trio made one of the best songs in 2016 with Chance.
Justin Bieber (‘Juke Jam’)
Bieber showcased his amazing vocals on this fan-favorite track.
Kirk Franklin & T-Pain (‘Finish Line / Drown’)
These legends helped this song to give spiritual lyrics, but live appearances are unannounced.
