“I have a crazy story, first time we were here back in January, we went to Area Bar and everyone was having a good time. It’s like 2am, the club is just getting started, we having a great time, I’m feeling great, then the power went out and in Chicago, that’s a terrible sign when somebody cuts the light at a party, you’re about to get set up,” he told Manuel.

Chance stated that as he was trying to figure out why the light went off, everyone started chanting a popular song till the power came back on.

“I was thinking for a second and before I knew it, everybody was chanting Burna Boy’s “Ye”. About 300 people, everybody just kept dancing basically till the power came back on.
