40. Chance The Rapper

Chance The Rapper has become hip-hop's poster boy in the past year and a half with his positive demeanor, soul-inspired content, and ability to bring other top-notch hip-hop acts together to curate some rather amazing music. His second mixtape, Acid Rap, was the project that was able to propel him into mainstream popularity and allow him to gain multiple endorsements from companies like MySpace and Dockers.

His third mixtape, Coloring Book, released in 2016, was the first stream-only album that was both nominated and won a Grammy for its single, 'No Problems' featuring Lil' Wayne and 2 Chainz. In some ways, Chance The Rapper has changed how music will be honored and awarded with his Grammy win but, what's more important is his philanthropic work that has helped the youth and general public throughout his hometown of Chicago.
