Like Chance, NF frequently raps about looking to God for strength and salvation.
In characterizing NF and The Search, Chance offers a useful point of comparison.
It was Christian rap’s version of Kanye West’s Graduation beating out 50 Cent’s Curtis back in 2007. NF is orders of magnitude less famous than Chance, but that didn’t stop his album The Search from outselling Chance’s wife-a-palooza The Big Day by 22 thousand units. The last week of July produced an inadvertent first-week sales clash between Chance the Rapper and NF, a Michigan rapper with a significant cult following.
