One of the few bright spots in the surreal fever dream that was 2016 was the emergence of Chance the Rapper from local Chicago hip-hop hero to world superstar and now, thanks to a surprise Christmas mixtape, he's the best Santa Claus we could ask for.

This surprise cements Chance as the new King of Christmas following his terrific performances on last week's Christmas episode of Saturday Night Liveand at this year's White House Christmas Tree lighting.
The mixtape is a very Chicago affair: Chance and Jeremih, both of the Windy City, are joined by fellow Chicago rappers Noname, who made a big splash in 2016 herself with the outstanding Telefone, and Lud Foe, plus comedian Hannibal Buress (a Chicago native).
And, in case you were wondering, people were very excited.
