A year ago from yesterday, Donnie Trumpet and The Social Experiment dropped their highly appreciated album, Surf. To celebrate the anniversary, Trumpet posted the track, “The First Time,” on SoundCloud. The track features Chance the Rapper along with Ady Suleiman, J.P. Floyd, Dustin Green, and Cam Obi.

The 11-minute track is a condensed compilation and the description of it states the following:

“This is a collection of unused Surf pieces. An ode to the era. Thank you to everyone who’s still listening and growing with the music.”

The track has a smooth flow to it and all the artists on the track mesh extremely well on it. Take a listen to “The First Time” above and tell us what you think of the track. Hopefully this means Donnie Trumpet and The Social Experiment will be dropping another project soon.

A week after unveiling the cover to his forthcoming Chance 3 mixtape, Chance The Rapper debuted his new single, “Blessings,” on The Tonight Show starring Jimmy Fallon.

Chance’s powerful performance was accompanied by Donnie Trumpet, Jamila Woods, Byron Cage and a choir in the background to go with his gospel themed song, “Blessings.” The track features lyrics as, “I don’t make songs for free, I make ’em for freedom / Don’t believe in Kings, believe in the kingdom.” Chance’s music not only receives admiration from his elder role model figures but it also speaks to the millennials of the new generation.

After the Chicago native appeared on Kanye West‘s “Ultralight Beam,” he set the hype up by rapping “I met Kanye West, I’m never going to fail / He said let’s do a good ass job on Chance three / I hear you gotta sell it to snatch the Grammy / Let’s make it so free and the bars so hard / That there ain’t one gosh darn part you can’t tweet.”

Although Chance 3 was originally set to be released in April, he unveiled the official artwork instead on Twitter.

Jeremih‘s “Planes” get the Social Experiment treatment with its latest remix featuring Chance The Rapper. Although Jeremih’s vocals are the same, the sound of the track is different thanks to added production from Lido and Peter Conttontale, with Donnie Trumpet doing his thing. Chance takes J. Cole‘s place on the four minute cut with a fun, yet retrospective verse.  Listen to the crew fly on the remix below, maybe they’ll choose to surf next.
