Time magazine Thursday revealed their annual "100 Most Influential People in the World," a list of artists, leaders, activists, and entrepreneurs making an impact on the world.
Among this year's group are Chance the Rapper, Jordan Peele, and Donald Glover.
Versatility seems to be the unifying theme of this year's influencers. Jordan Peele veered away from the sketch-comedy absurdity of Key and Peele and made his directorial film debut with the dynamic racial satire Get Out. Donald Glover in 2016 won a pair of Golden Globes for the FX series Atlanta, which he created and starred in--and then dropped his third studio album, Awaken, My Love! And Chance the Rapper snatched the Grammy Award for Best Rap Album for Coloring Book, and in the meantime managed to revitalize support for Chicago public schools with a $1 million donation to city after-school programs.
Leslie Jones, Viola Davis, Riz Ahmed, John Legend, Alicia Keys, Simone Biles, Emma Stone, Ivanka Trump, and Colin Kaepernick were also among Time's 2017 "Most Influential" list.
