![]() ![]() It's just us three in our living room, it's so weird. Now it's just being friends and funny together without that pressure. The audience is gonna hate me for saying this but especially now, we don't have an audience now because of the pandemic, and I think it makes it almost better. Not to mention, there is always crazy new content online. Even if it was a sh*ttier paycheck, how could I say no? I'm just grateful and I realize I'm blessed to be in this situation. I just wanted to put a mix of everything that was important to me on there. ![]() It was really important for me to put out a positive message. Not even as a rapper, but just as an artist as a whole. Was America's Sweetheart kind of created with this idea in mind - that you had to prove yourself? ![]() Because I'm very adamant about doing what I wanna do creatively. So for me, I think being independent is just better for my personality. To be honest, I've always been rebellious by nature. What are the pros and cons between the two in your eyes? You've been both independent and signed to a major now. Since I was little all I wanted was to be an entertainer, to be in music and act, and it just comes with the territory and you gotta build up a thick skin. But I've been doing music so much longer than TV so I never thought it would be a hard transition. Talk about full circle.Īt first, it got to me a lot. As far as transitioning, I was originally a hip-hop dancer and my first video was actually filmed at the same studio where I now film Ridiculousness. So I've had to pass up a lot of dope opportunities cause of that, but it is what it is. My schedule has definitely been a setback. So they got on my song, and we ended up all just collaborating on the same day.īut your transition from TV to music has been anything but "easy." Coincidentally me and my girls all had a big studio session with Too $hort on the same day, and he had just worked. I made "Eazy" in my home studio and I felt it would be dope to get other female rappers on it. How did you connect with Anaya and Salma? "But I've been doing music much longer than TV though, so I never thought it would be a hard transition." "When people know you for one thing first, they kinda get stuck with that in their head, so that's been a little bit of a setback," Chanel admits. On "Eazy," – Chanel's latest single to get the visual treatment off her debut album America's Sweetheart – the rapper exudes veteran-level confidence, the track's polished trap grumblings fitting her as snugly as well-tailored pants. "Heaven is calling, you need the answer," she raps on "Heaven's Calling." "Roll up your sleeves and go on, lift your pants up / Deep inside that water, just keep moving forward." But she has continued ignoring the comments and persevering, continuing on her path to rap stardom on her own terms. "In my head, I don't see myself as successful as other people might," she said candidly. "Who cares if you haven't had your first hit yet? I see rappers come on that couch and they look shook to be there," he told Chanel. During a meet-up with Game, the rapper shared a similar sentiment. "He looked at me and he said, 'Chanel, you're venting to Too $hort,'" she said with a laugh. The star was soaking up the sunshine in Joshua Tree National Park in Southern California for the pic.But during a particular studio session with Too $hort, she recalled venting excessively about the hate she was receiving online. Chanel posed with her boyfriend, Dom Fenison, who was fully decked out in Burberry, including matching sneakers.Ĭhanel also shared a desert snap of her bump. The star recently shared a snap to Instagram of her baby shower, where she showed off her bump in a flowing pink dress.
