Kamal Givens, also known as Chance, is best known for his work in reality TV, beginning with his role on season one of VH1's I Love New York, wherein he was one of 20 contenders for the affections of Tiffany "Miss New York" Pollard. On I Love New York, Chance appears with his brother Ahmad Givens, also known as Real. Chance is also a former Capitol Records artist.
Chance and Real were born in South Central/Beverly Hills, California and raised together on a horse ranch. They, plus another brother, Micah, were in a rap group known as the Stallionaires, in reference to where they were raised.
Chance and Real were discovered by VH1 producers through their MySpace pages. The brothers were among 20 contestants in I Love New York. This Bachelor-style dating show features Tiffany Pollard, better known as Miss New York, in her quest to find true love. Chance was eliminated on the 11th episode, making him the show's runner-up. He then later was brought back on I Love New York 2 as a guest to help New York pick the right guy that season. Chance is also noteworthy, because not picking him was the only regret New York voiced publicly.
