Killer Mike (fat ass rapper for white people) / Run the jewels
Oh yeah definitely. His fanbase now consists of hipster "I'm down with you brothers if you shop at my nearly bankrupted boutique store" flannel shirt wearing cacs. It's comical at this point. Go to any Killer Mike vid and you'll see avatars of a fukking fedora and big ass glasses on a pale skin calling Killer Mike the great leader, national treasure and all that :mjlol:

You can tell by some of these answers that either some of y’all didn’t read the OP all the way through or y’all struggle with reading comprehension. The OP asked who STARTED with a black fan base and then over the years turned white. Y’all can’t say artists like Travis or Tyler because they fan bases been white from the beginning

It’s interesting tho with Tyler’s last 2 releases I think his crowd is starting to get more mixed :ehh:

White people did put Wu on though. They kinda always had white folks behind them. I guess I can’t be mad at that answer though
