Family over everything.<\/p>\n

Chance the Rapper<\/strong> is prioritizing the people that matter most to him: his wife Kirsten Corley<\/strong> and two daughters. After welcoming his second child<\/a> just last week, a baby girl named Marli<\/strong>, the 26-year-old star has made the tough decision to delay his tour in order to spend quality time with his loved ones.<\/p>\n

“I thought it over for the past week and I’ve decided to push back my tour,” he began his lengthy and heartfelt Instagram post<\/a>, alongside a photo with his newborn and 3-year-old daughter, Kensli<\/strong>. “This year has been one of the greatest of my life; Marriage, new baby, first album etc. But with it being so eventful it has also been very strenuous having to divide my time and energy between family and work.”<\/p>\n

For the “Hot Shower” rapper, he says he didn’t want to make the same mistake again of leaving his wife and baby alone during such an important time.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

“When Kensli was born, I went on tour 2 weeks later and missed some of the most important milestones in her life, but more importantly I was absent when her mother needed me the most,” he shared. “At this point as a husband and father of two I realize that I can’t make that mistake again. I need to be as helpful and available as possible to my wife in these early months of raising Kensli and Marli.”<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

Despite making a difficult decision to halt his The Big Day<\/em> tour, the father-of-two reassured his fans that he would be back on the stage.<\/p>\n

“I apologize because I know how many people were counting on seeing me soon, but I hope you’ll understand and forgive me in time,” the 26-year-old star wrote, adding, “Tour kicks off Jan. 15th and you can still get tix or your refund if you are unavailable at chanceraps.com & a few of the shows are still being rescheduled as well so stay tuned.”<\/p>\n

He closed his Instagram post with a heartfelt message: “I love you guys AND LITERALLY CANT WAIT FOR U TO WITNESS THIS SHOW.”<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

Earlier this March, Chance the Rapper and his wife, whom he married that same month<\/a>, shared the exciting news that they were expecting baby number two<\/a>. <\/p>\n

“Oh yeah, we’re pregnant,” Kirsten shared on Instagram, alongside a photo of her growing baby bump. “New baby droppin September,” the 26-year-old star cheekily commented.<\/p>\n

And now that Marli is here, it looks like the “Slide Around” rapper is going to soak up every moment with his daughter.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n
