Chance The Rapper is known for his music and for his humanitarian efforts. The Chicago-bred rapper has shown selfless acts such as donating to public schools and finding a kidney for his aunt. However, Chance isn’t always as compassionate online, as proven by a Twitter fight on Wednesday with an ex-fan who accused him of having an inflated ego.
The Twitter user (and self-proclaimed ex-fan) expressed to Chance that he was disappointed in the way the rapper has responded to criticism over his newly released music. “People have different tastes and that’s fine but the way you’re talking to fans who’ve been with you since 10 day is disappointing and that ego reflects in the quality of your newest music,” he said.
Chance simply responded, “Eat a d*ck.”
Eat a dick

The Twitter user responded to the low-brow insult with a comment about Chance’s religious beliefs. “It’s good to see that your daughter and relationship with God turned you into a good man instead of someone who can’t handle criticism.”
Another Twitter user joined in on the critique, making a note of how Chance responds to constructive criticism.
Chance doesn’t respond well to constructive criticism

Chance finally responded with more than three words, but told the Twitter user to “eat a d*ck” again.
You’re a spoiled child who thinks artists are making music for you. I never intended for you to find or like anything I made. If I knew you existed, I would’ve tried my hardest to keep you from being able to enjoy it. Now go eat a dick again.

The Twitter user then become defensive, saying he never said Chance’s music was bad.
I didn't say whether your music was good or bad, I said you treat your fans poorly. You're supposed to be a role model but you're out here telling people to eat dicks for offering you criticism. SMH

Chance once again responded with those three magical words.
Eat a dick again tho.

The Twitter user then compared Chance to Kanye’s notoriously inflated ego.
Can't believe I used to love you. You've got the Kanye ego without the prowess

Another user got involved in the argument, telling Chance his ego “doesn’t suit” him.

Chance pointed out the condescending nature of the response. “If I needed your help or taste to make music I would’ve called you everytime I hit the studio for advice,” he said.
Its really condescending when you talk about “strides I showed” and what “suits me” lol. If I needed your help or taste to make music I would’ve called you everytime I hit the studio for advice. You don’t know me or care for me you just listened to songs I made a long time ago.

Chance then ended the lengthy exchange by saying the argument wasn’t “that serious” because it was on the internet.
Its the internet, Its not that serious. And you should definitely go somewhere and eat a bag of dicks
