♪ >> Stephen: WELCOME BACK,
EVERYBODY.
TONIGHT, I'M EXCITED TO SIT DOWN WITH A THREE-TIME GRAMMY WINNING
MUSICIAN WHO IS NOW HOSTING A REBOOT OF "PUNK'D."
PLEASE WELCOME CHANCE THE RAPPER!
>> HEY!
>> Stephen: HOW ARE YOU DOING?
I'M GOOD, MAN.
HOW ARE YOU?
>> Stephen: I'M DOING ALL RIGHT.
I'M WITH MY FAMILY AND EVERYBODY IS, YOU KNOW, HEALTHY AND
REASONABLY HAPPY FOR PEOPLE WHO ARE ON TOP OF EACH OTHER RIGHT
NOW.
ARE YOU THERE WITH YOUR FAMILY?
>> YEAH, WE'RE ALL HERE.
KINSEY IS DOING NAP "TIME" AND SO IS MARLEY AND IN THE KITCHEN
COOKING SOMETHING, SO, YEAH, WE'RE ALL CHILLING, HAPPY TO BE
ABLE TO SOCIAL DISTANCE EVEN FROM EACH OTHER.
>> Stephen: IN 2019 YOU RELEASED AN ALBUM, GOT MARRIED,
HAD A SECOND BABY.
WHY DID YOU GET SO MUCH DONE IN 2019.
DID YOU SEE THIS COMING IN 2020 AND DID EVERYTHING WHEN YOU HAD
DOWN TIME?
>> I DIDN'T SEE THIS COMING.
IT WAS A JAM PACKED YEAR WITH PROBABLY SOME OF THE BIGGEST AND
BEST MEMORIES OF MY LIFETIME AND, YEAH, I'M GLAD ALL THAT
STUFF WASN'T SCHEDULED FOR 2020.
>> Stephen: WELL, NOW YOU'RE STUCK AT HOME LIKE EVERYBODY
ELSE DOING THE RIGHT THING BY, YOU KNOW, SOCIAL DISTANCING.
SO IT'S YOU, YOUR WIFE KRISTEN, KINSLEY.
>> IT'S KINSLEY, MARLEY, KIRSTON AND I.
>> Stephen: WHO IS WINNING, TEAM CHILD OR TEAM ADULT?
>> THE KIDS ARE BEATING OUR AMSZ.
I DON'T KNOW IF I CAN SAY THAT ON ZOOM BUT --
>> Stephen: SURE.
BUT THEY'RE DEFEATING US.
>> Stephen: IN WHAT REEL SNM.
JUST THEIR OVERALL PRESENCE.
I FEEL LIKE I DIDN'T HAVE 2002 KIDS TILL THIS QUARANTINE
STARTED.
BETWEEN THE NANNY AND THE GRANDPARENTS AND THE SCHOOL, WE
BASICALLY JUST GAVE EACH OTHER HIGH FIVES EVERY DAY AND AND NOW
IT'S LIKE A FULL ON ONE-ON-ONE OR ONE-ON-TWO TIME ALL THE TIME.
>> Stephen: I'VE SAID IT BEFORE, THEY'RE SMALL BUT
RELENTLESS OPPONENTS.
>> YEAH, THEY ARE BEATING US UP.
KINSLEY, FOR ONE, SHE REALLY LIKES TO PLAY THE GAME CANDY
LAND.
I DON'T KNOW IF YOU REMEMBER CANDY LAND.
>> YEAH.
SHE HAS SOME SORT OF FIX ON THE GAME WHERE SHE WINS ALL THE
TIME.
THERE'S NO STRATEGY, IT'S SUPPOSED TON RANDOM.
>> Stephen: CANDY LAND NINJA?
YEAH, AND SHE PUTS IT IN YOUR FACE WHEN SHE WINS.
SHE'S A TOUGH OPPONENT FOR SURE.
>> Stephen: I UNDERSTAND YOU GAVE UP FRENCH FRIES FOR LENT.
IS THAT SOMETHING THAT YOU CAN MAINTAIN.
>> ARE YOU ASKING THAT BECAUSE YOU KNOW I HAVE FRENCH FRIES
WAITING FOR ME DOWNSTAIRS RIGHT NOW?
( LAUGHTER ) I FEEL SO BAD BECAUSE I HAVEN'T
BEEN DOING TOO WELL.
THERE WAS A SERIES OF FOODS WE WERE SUPPOSED TO GIVE UP AND A
SCHEDULE FOR WHAT TIMES WE WERE SUPPOSED TO EAT AND I WAS DOING
WELL ON MOST THINGS THINGS.
THE THING THAT'S BEEN BOTHERSOME HAS BEEN THE FRIED FOODS AND
MAINLY FRENCH FRIES.
>> Stephen: SURE.
IT'S SO STRESSFUL NOW.
>> Stephen: I WOULD THINK QUARANTINE MADE IT EASIER TO
GIVE UP FRENCH FRIES.
DO YOU HAVE A HOME FRYER?
>> I'LL PAN FRY WITH A LITTLE GREASE AND FROZEN FRENCH FRIES.
OR THEY STILL DO POSTMATES.
THERE ARE STILL PEOPLE OUT DELIVERING FOOD AND ALL.
>> Stephen: I FEEL YA, I GAVE UP MEAT FOR LENT, BUT EVER SINCE
THE QUARANTINE, MAN, I HAVE BEEN COOKING STEAKS.
I HOPE JESUS WILL FORGIVE ME.
>> THAT'S HOW I HAVE BEEN FEELING, MAN.
I HAVE BEEN FEELING SO CONVICTED.
THE DAYS SEEM LONGER.
DID THEY ADD HOURS ONCE THIS QUARANTINE THING STARTED?
>> Stephen: I DON'T KNOW.
I DON'T KNOW.
HEY, WHAT KIND OF MUSIC ARE YOU PLAYING THESE DAYS?
WHAT ARE YOU LISTENING TO?
>> WELL, TO BE HONEST, WE HAVE BEEN LISTENING TO A LOT OF
GOSPEL MUSIC, A LOT OF KIRK FRANKLIN, FRED HAMMOND, KANYE'S
NEW ALBUM, SOME OF THE RECORDED LIVE PERFORMANCES THAT HE DID.
THERE'S THIS ONE SONG BY THE MISSISSIPPI MASS CHILDREN'S
CHOIR CALLED "I'M BLESSED" THAT WE HAVE BEEN PLAYING A LOT
LATELY.
MISSISSIPPI MASS CHILDREN'S CHOIR.
I'M BLESSED.
IT'S BEEN DEFINITELY HOLDING US DOWN.
THAT'S MAINLY -- AND THEN SOME OF THE NEWER SONGS.
DRAKE HAS AS A NEW SONG THAT'S GOT, LIKE, A DANCE TO IT.
DOING A LOT OF TICK TOCKS.
WE HAVE BEEN DOING LITERALLY ANYTHING WE CAN DO.
I JUST BUILT A BICYCLE LESS THAN AN HOUR AGO.
>> Stephen: YOU BUILT A BY SICKLE?
>> I BUILT A BICYCLE FOR KINSLEY WITH TRAINING CHEELSWHEELS.
I DON'T KNOW IF YOU'VE EVER HAD TO DO THIS, BUT WHEN YOU GET A
BIKE THAT YOU HAVE TO PUT TOGETHER YOURSELF, YOU HAVE TO
PULL THE BRAKE SYSTEM AS TIGHT AS YOU CAN AND THEN WRAP IT
AROUND AND SCREW IT IN.
>> Stephen: YEAH, I THREW UP A YOUTUBE VIDEO LAST WEEK OF ME
CHANGING AN INNER TUBE.
>> WHAT?
>> Stephen: I'M DOING ALL KINDS OF THINGS I USED TO WHEN I
WAS A KID THAT I HAVEN'T DONE IN A LONG TIME.
OLD SKILLS COMING BACK WHEN YOU NEED THEM.
>> WE'RE GOING TO BE JUST FINE.
>> Stephen: HAVE YOU BEEN LISTENING TO ANY BILL WITHERS?
>> I HAVE, MAN.
IT'S REALLY HIT ME HARD WHEN HE PASSED AWAY THE OTHER DAY
BECAUSE, FOR WHATEVER REASON, WE WERE PLAYING -- OH, I KNOW WHAT
IT WAS, ME AND MY WIFE WERE LISTENING TO A PLAY LIST AND
DIGGITY BY BLACK STREET CAME ON AND I SAID, THIS IS A SAMPLE OF
GRANDMA'S HANDS BY BILL WITHERS, AND WE STARTED PLAYING IT.
THEN A FEW DAYS LATER HE PASSED AWAY.
HIS CATALOG WAS SO CLOSE TO ME BUZZ MY GRANDMOTHER HAD A RECORD
PLAYER AT HIS HOUSE AND A FEW RECORDS.
AND COINCIDENTALLY IT WAS BILL WITHERS AND KENNY ROGERS WHO
PASSED AWAY RECENTLY WHOSE MUSIC WE WERE PLAYING.
FOR DIFFERENT SIZED LPs THERE ARE DIFFERENT SPEEDS.
>> Stephen: YEAH, 45, 33 AND 78.
>> AND I GREW UP ON KANYE AND HE USED TO SPEED UP THE SAMPLES AND
THEY WOULD SOUND LIKE CHIPMUNKS.
SO I WOULD LISTEN TO AIN'T NO SUNSHINE AND LOVELY DAY SPED UP.
BUT HE'S ONE OF THE GREATEST SONGWRITERS THAT EVER LIVED FOR
SURE.
>> Stephen: HOW IS YOUR GRANDMOTHER?
>> SHE'S GOOD, MAN.
SHE'S VERY GOOD.
SHE'S ON INSTAGRAM NOW.
SHE'S BEEN SENDING ME MEMES, WHICH IS SO STRANGE, BECAUSE
SHE'S PLI GRAND -- SHE'S MY GRANDMA.
I THINK SHE SCROLLS INSTAGRAM ALL DAY.
I GET A DM OF APP CRAZY CHRISTIAN MEME EVERY DAY.
>> Stephen: WHAT'S A CRAZY CHRISTIAN MEME?
>> LET'S SEE -- >> Stephen: WE'RE ALL WORRIED
ABOUT THE GRANDPARENTS OUT THERE BECAUSE WE WANT TO KEEP THEM
SAFE AND SOUND.
IT CAN BE HARD BECAUSE YOU WANT TO GO TAKE CARE OF THEM, BUT THE
THING YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO DO IS LEAVE THEM ALONE RIGHT NOW.
>> FOR REAL.
IT'S BEEN TOUGH FOR ME.
I'VE ONLY HAD TO -- MY OWN DAD HAS A PRE-EXISTING CONDITION, SO
I HAVEN'T BEEN ABLE TO SEE MY MOM AND DAD FOR A WHILE, AND,
OCCASIONALLY, I'M ABLE TO DROP OFF MY DAUGHTER AT MY
MOTHER-IN-LAW'S HOUSE, AND WHENEVER I'M DRIVING I'M, LIKE,
I SHOULD GO SEE MY GRANDMA, AND OBVIOUSLY I CAN'T BECAUSE WE'VE
GOT TO BE RESPONSIBLE.
THANK GOD FOR FaceTime.
>> Stephen: I FEEL LIKE I KNOW YOUR GRANDMA A LITTLE BIT.
I KNOW SHE CAN SAY WITH HER VOICE AND HER WAY SHE LOVES YOU.
ALL THE KNEELS OF THE NEPHEWS ARE THE LAYERS.
THE ONLY ONE SHE LOVES IS JESUS CHRIST.
PRAYING WITH HER HAND SIDE, SOMEBODY TOLD ME I SHOULD TAKE
MY BUTT TO CHURCH?
>> HOW DO YOU KNOW THE LYRICS BETTER THAN ME RIGHT NOW?
>> Stephen:IO WENT TO CHURCH WITH CANDY, THE PEPPERMINT WAS
THE TRUTH!
( LAUGHTER ) >> I'VE SEEN A LOT OF VIDEOS.
YOU CAN RAP BASICALLY ANY RAPPER SONG BETTER THAN THEY CAN
THEMSELVES.
>> Stephen: YOU'RE HOSTING THE SHOW, IT'S CHANCE THE TV SHOW
HOST, YOU'RE DOING "PUNK'D" ON KEEPY.
WHY DID YOU WANT TO GET IN MY LANE MAN?
>> I SAW YOU DOING IT AND I THOUGHT, THAT LOOKS EASY.
THAT'S JUST A JOKE.
( LAUGHTER ) IT'S INCREDIBLY DIFFICULT WHEN
YOU HAVE TO DO IT IN PRACTICE.
SO, IT WAS A COOL EXPERIENCE.
I WAS LUCKY ENOUGH TO TAKE ON A SHOW THAT HAS ALL THIS HISTORY
BEHIND IT AND ONE OF MY FAVORITE SHOWS WHEN I BECAME A PRE-TEEN
OR A BETWEEN OR WHATEVER YOU WANT TO CALL IT AND ASHEN HAD
THIS SHOW WHERE FOR THE FIRST TIME WE GOT TO SEE CELEBRITIES
NOT ALL GLAMMED UP, LIKE IN THEIR REGULAR LIVES, DEALING
WITH RIDICULOUS CIRCUMSTANCES, AND IT WAS ALL, YOU KNOW, IN
GOOD SPORT AND FUN AND ME GET TOGETHER DO IT THIS TIME WAS
VERY DIFFERENT, VERY COOL.
>> Stephen: CAN YOU GIVE US ANY HINT OF WHO YOU MIGHT BE
DOING THIS TO?
>> UM, YEAH, I COULD GIVE YOU A COUPLE OF HINTS.
I MEAN, JUST KNOW A LOT OF THEM ARE, LIKE, CLOSE FRIENDS OF
MINE, PEOPLE I'VE WORKED WITH MUSIC ON BEFORE.
>> Stephen: OKAY.
YOU KNOW, ONE OF MY FAVORITE ONES, I WILL GO OUT AND SAY, A
COUPLE OF MY FAVORITE ONES ARE DEBABY, OFFSET FROM THE AMIGOS,
AND TIE DOLLAR SIGN.
THEY PROBABLY HAVE THE BEST REACTIONS IN PUNK HISTORY.
>> Stephen: DO THEY TAKE IT WELL?
>> NO, NO, NO, NO.
NO.
>> Stephen: YOU FEEL BAD ABOUT IT ALL?
BECAUSE YOU'RE A NICE PERSON.
DO YOU NOT FEEL BAD ABOUT THIS AT ALL?
>> NO, I DID.
I FELT A LOT OF WAYS ABOUT IT.
ACTUALLY, I WOULD SAY, LIKE, 25% INTO SHOOTING THIS, I KIND OF
PIVOTED IT TO BE MORE GEARED TOWARDS PEOPLE I KNEW INSTEAD OF
STRANGERS THAT WERE CELEBRITIES BECAUSE, YOU KNOW -- I MEAN, FOR
ONE, IT WASN'T ANNOUNCED THAT I WAS HOSTING "PUNK'D" UNTIL WE
FILMED THE ENTIRE SERIES.
>> Stephen: THAT'S SMART.
IT'S SMART TO GET THEM INVOLVED, BUT THEN ONCE YOU HAVE
TO DO THE REVEAL, AND YOU'VE GOTTEN THEM TO THIS HIGH POINT
OF BEINGED OFF, AND THEN I RUN OUT -- THEY'RE, LIKE, WHAT ARE
YOU DOING HERE?
CHANCE THE RAPPER?
I'M, LIKE, I BROUGHT BACK "PUNK'D"!
>> Stephen: DID YOU EVER FEEL IN DANGER FOR YOUR SAFETY?
>> SEVERAL TIMES.
WE ACTUALLY HAD PLANS TO DO DEJUAN THE ROCK JOHNSON --
DeWAYNE THE ROCK JOHNSON, AND I TOLD HIM HE WAS TOO BIG -- NOT
TOO BIG FOR THE SHOW, BUT, LIKE, IN PHYSICAL STATURE, HE COULD
BEAT THE HELL OUT OF ME, SO I STARTED SWITCHING IT TO SMALLER,
CLOSER FRIENDS OF MINE.
>> Stephen: BUT STILL GREAT RATINGS.
>> YEAH, IT WOULD BE HUGE FOR MY CAREER.
>> Stephen: THE ROCK BEATS THE RAPPER.
>> YEAH.
I GUESS THAT WOULD BE COOL FOR GIGGLES.
BUT NOT FOR MY OWN PHYSICAL HEALTH.
>> Stephen: CHANCE, MY FRIEND, WE HAVE TO TAKE A LITTLE BIT OF
A BREAK.
WE'LL BE RIGHT BACK WITH MORE CHANCE THE RAPPER.
STICK AROUND, EVERYBODY.
