The Grammys changed their rules, and now this 23-year-old rapper has made history

CBS unveiled the 2017 Grammy nominations on Tuesday, and Chance the Rapper earned seven nominations in a historic first appearance.

Chance's acclaimed streaming-only 2016 album "Coloring Book" is the first such project to be nominated for a Grammy, and he's up for best rap album and best new artist, among other awards.

Earlier this year, Chance, who's only 23 despite a significant body of work, led a successful petition to get the Recording Academy (the voting body that awards the Grammys) to recognize streaming-only albums at the Grammy awards for the first time. 

In the best rap album category, Chance will face off against Drake, Kanye West, DJ Khaled, De La Soul, and ScHoolboy Q. 

The 59th Grammy Awards will take place on February 12, 2017.
