It's safe to say Lorne Michaels and company are Chance The Rapper fans.

Chance made history as the first independent, unsigned musical guest on Saturday Night Live last December when he performed "Sunday Candy" and "Somewhere In Paradise." Then he returned in February of 2016 to help Kanye West debut "Ultralight Beam" on the eve of the release of The Life of Pablo—and now he'll be returning again on December 17 alongside host Casey Affleck.

After popping up in a memorable sketch alongside comedian Pete Davidson last time, here's to hoping Chance gets even more involved on the acting end this time around—especially with his feature film debut approaching.

See SNL's announcement tweet and revisit his debut on the NBC variety show below.
