Wedding bells are in the air for Chance the Rapper and his fiancée Kirsten Cooley.
The “Blessings” rapper proposed to his girlfriend of five years on Thursday at a 4th of July bbq party. He got down on one knee in front of friends and family and asked the mother of his two-year-old daughter Kensli, to be his wife. Chance took to Twitter and wrote, “She said yes.”
Although his friends and family celebrated the joyous moment, one fan, in particular, was not impressed with how the rapper proposed to his girlfriend. The Twitter user [Its_RianM] criticized Chance and wrote, “Can I be honest? I really thought Chance the rapper proposal was extra hot smelly trash. I’m all for keeping it simple but 5 years and kid. She deserved a little more effort.”

Chance the Rapper personally direct messaged the man and tried giving him the benefit of the doubt by saying Rian was probably just trying to be “funny” and slammed the fan for his hateful comments towards his proposal.
The fan took a screenshot of the hip-hop artist’s message and posted it online which infuriated Chance much more. The rapper made his way back to the man’s inbox and told him, “Get off my d*ck.”

Chance the Rapper continued, “You have expectations for my personal life, but you don’t have access to my life in that way that would ever allow you to understand any of the emotions evoked by me and my fiancee getting engaged in the place we did… You saw a small amount of info on a blog somewhere.”
The fan didn’t respond back but instead posted the second screenshot on his Twitter account.
ESPN sports journalist Jemele Hill called the fan out and defended Chance for standing his ground. She wrote, “Unpopular hot take: I don’t mind if people have an opinion on the lives of public figure, because that comes with the territory. But realize, they do have a right to respond and that’s not being sensitive either.”
