Jimmy Fallon’s That’s My Jam series will launch another Season 2 episode later this month, meaning now is exactly the right time for us to roll out the exclusive premiere of a new clip featuring Chance the Rapper.

The clip, available above, opens with Fallon telling Chance and the in-studio audience about the setup behind the series’ Mega Mix challenge. In short, Fallon spins a wheel, thus resulting in the selection of a word. The contestant—Chance, in this case—is then tasked with singing a medley of different songs featuring that word in the title.

Here, Chance is challenged with stringing together a series of musical excerpts from tracks with the word “what” in the title, meaning fans get a chance to hear Chance deliver takes on everything from DJ Snake and Lil Jon’s “Turn Down for What” to Louis Armstrong’s “What a Wonderful World.”

All told, the second season of That’s My Jam boasts appearances from 40 different all-star guests including (but not limited to) Quinta Brunson, Quavo (seen in the Chance clip above), Simu Liu, Saweetie, French Montana (also seen in the Chance clip), Keke Palmer, Julia Michaels, Kenan Thompson, Kelsea Ballerini, and more. New episodes are available on NBC and Peacock.

In November, Chance shared the track “YAH Know,” a release he followed this month with his appearance on MadeinTYO’s “BET UNCUT” with Smino. This April will mark the 10th anniversary of the release of Chance’s Acid Rap tape, a milestone he’s expected to commemorate in some form soon.
