Chance the Rapper return to Saturday Night Live yesterday for his second stint hosting the long-running comedy program. He also pulled double duty as musical guest, performing “Zanies and Fools” and “Handsome” from his album The Big Day. Megan Thee Stallion stepped up as a surprise guest on “Handsome,” marking her first appearance on the show.
During his opening monologue, Chance wore a red Chicago Teachers Union shirt and spoke in support of their ongoing strike over contract matters. He also appeared in multiple sketches throughout the night. In one of them, he plays a dancer for Earth, Wind & Fire; in another, he reprises his “let’s do that hockey” sports reporter character in an e-sports sketch. Watch everything from the episode below, including a cut-for-time sketch titled “’80s Drug PSA.”
Chance previously appeared as a guest on Fallon, where he talked about Kanye’s presence at his wedding. He was set to embark on a massive tour this year but announced in September that he’d be postponing most of those dates to 2020 following the birth of his second daughter.
