Artist News Releases
Dionne Warwick and Chance The Rapper release charity duet
By Andy Malt | Published on Monday 29 November 2021
A year after Dionne Warwick queried Chance The Rapper’s stage name on Twitter, the unlikely duo have released a single together, called ‘Nothing’s Impossible’. Proceeds from the track will go to two charities chosen by the musicians.
This all started last December when Warwick tweeted, “Hi, Chance The Rapper. If you are very obviously a rapper why did you put it in your stage name? I cannot stop thinking about this”.
“Sorry I’m still freaking out that you know who I am”, he replied. “This is amazing! I will be whatever you wanna call me Ms Warwick”.
Then came the key tweet from Warwick: “Of course I know you. You’re THE rapper. Let’s rap together. I’ll message you”.
A little over a month later, Warwick announced that they now had plans to record together, saying in a video posted to Twitter: “Chance and I will be getting in the studio very, very soon. It’s gonna be a pleasure working with him and his organisation, called SocialWorks, as he’s working with mine, Hunger: Not Impossible”.
Then they left it long enough for everyone to forget that all this had happened before actually getting round to releasing the track, which arrived on Friday.
“The wait is over”, said Warwick in a new video on Twitter. “Finally, after a year, the duet I did with Chance The Rapper is finally out – ‘Nothing’s Impossible'”.
“[The] Not Impossible organisation is how I got involved with this”, she went on, adding “[I] felt that if I could be of some service to them with my talent … then why not? I’m so THRILLED that Chance also felt the same way. So now I’m asking you all, please, do what you can to help those who are not able to help themselves. That’s what this is all about. You see, nothing’s impossible if you believe”.
There you go then. Although, before you listen to the track, I should warn you that, despite promises made a year ago, Warwick does not rap on it. Listen to ‘Nothing’s Impossible’ here:
