Chance The Rapper has been slammed on social media after a video surfaced of him "inappropriately" dancing with a woman at a Carnival in Jamaica.

In a video shared on Instagram, the 30-year-old musician - who is married to Kirsten Corley and shares two children: Marli, three, and Kensli, seven - was clearly enjoying himself at the annual festival.

He was seen leaning back while a model named Mela Millz was suggestively dancing on him. At one point in the footage, Chance - whose full name is Chancelor Johnathan Bennett - slapped her butt.

The 'No Problem' rapper was shirtless, wearing just a pair of shorts and his signature '3' hat, while the model he was dancing with donned a risqué yet traditional costume.

Watch the video below:

As the video went viral on social media, many people were disappointed with Chance and stated that he was disrespecting his wife of four years.

One user wrote: "Smh marriage don't mean sh** to people smh."

A third person on Twitter said: "Everybody talking about Chance the Rapper 'just dancing' with the woman but let it be his wife being caught and she’d be crucified lol."

And a fourth user added: "The video with Chance the Rapper? lol SMH. At what point would any of you be okay with your husband slapping another woman’s a** like that? or your wife getting her a** slapped like that by another man?"

Meanwhile, several others contended that he was simply enjoying his 30th birthday on the island and embracing the celebratory Caribbean culture.

One user penned: "The fact that so many people asking if he not married just proves to me that Carnival needs to stay a Caribbean event because I can't."

A second user stated: "The ain’t he married questions are. Carnival culture is to take a wine and move on. Nothing personal. Just people having fun."

A third person wrote: "These type of festivals (mostly called 'CARNIVAL') happen ALL THE TIME worldwide. This is definitely not inappropriate unless he and his wife had a conversation & she didn't want him to attend. If you attend then you may end up dancing & having fun. That's the point of the event."

The Grammy-winning musician and his wife first met back in 2003. The couple ended their romance in 2016, but eventually got back together in July 2018.

Chance and Corley got married in 2019, at The Resort at Pelican Hill in Newport Beach, and their wedding was attended by 150 friends and family, including Kim Kardashian and Kanye West. Their nuptials came just months after the rapper proposed during a Fourth of July barbecue.
