New York Post writer challenges White Sox, ESPN and others to recite Chance the Rapper's lyrics

Earlier this week, New York Post writer Phil Mushnick challenged the Chicago White Sox and ESPN to recite lyrics of songs by Chance the Rapper.

Chance the Rapper, whose real name is Chancelor Bennett, is 22-years-old, single, has one child and grew up in suburban Chicago. Last week, he formed a paid partnership with the White Sox and became the club’s “Ambassador,” according to the New York Post. Chance recently threw out the first pitch at the team's home opener and often wears a White Sox hat.

“Would Mayor Emanuel, MLB Commissioner Rob Manfred and Chicago Rev. Jesse Jackson recite his lyrics in public?” Mushnick wrote. “What about White Sox executive vice president Ken Williams, 52-year-old African-American? Will he publicly support the addition of a young man who publicly and professionally refers to black men as N—-s , and young women as easily discarded sexual junk as 'The man we want on our team!'?”

Mushnick also challenged ESPN’s Mike Greenberg and Mike Golic, who endorsed this proposal on their show.

Chance’s songs include “Wonderful Everyday,” “Wanna Be Cool,” “Paranoia” and “Smoke Again,” according to redeyechicago.com.

It will be interesting to see if the White Sox and ESPN personalities take the challenge and can recite Chance’s lyrics.
