Future is definitely a star. Did Joe say he wasn't? I think I missed that...

Oh...see, I feel the same way as Joe. White people know these other rappers by name, but don't know who Future is yet. So Future can't be a superstar yet...
...but Future is on his way for sure.

I didn't know white people's validation is what makes you a star. He mentions recognizability. But I'm willing to bet you that if Katy Perry came and shopped at my local Wal-Mart, she'd be able to shop unbothered. If Future walked into my local Wal-Mart, he would surely be bothered. Hell, even someone like Boosie would garner more attention. It's all relative.
He has a right to stick to his own criteria. But for me, I consider you a star based on your influence and impact. Has Katy Perry's sound influenced a generation? No. Has her style influenced anyone? No. What about her appearance? No. Yet she was invited to perform at the Superbowl even though she has ZERO impact on the music industry.
On the other hand, Future has been blasted out of every speaker (whether it be from a car, a club, house party, ect) I've been around for the last 3 years, non-stop. Future has influenced a whole generation of up-n-coming artists, and Future's look has been replicated countless times, even amongst his industry mates.
Just cause you have your career fast-tracked by white people and place in positions to succeed (often with little to no talent), doesnt make you a megastar, imo.

Its not even just white people
People who don't check for hip hop or music period don't know him
I've had to explain to alot of football heads who he was when people kept making a big deal out of Russell Wilson posting pics with his son
My mother don't know who Future is and she's black
She knows Drake though
