Is Tech N9NE still the favorite Rapper for Black people who don't have any Black Friends?
- Thread starter Luke Cage
- Start date
he chose to be independent. If he had gone the major route he definitely would have been on another career path. And black KC rap fans did support him, in my opinion. He ended up on the ICP type shyt because you can only do so much independently and being from KC and rapping hood shyt. He needed to branch off into white audiences to get his paper up. But it's not like other people in the industry didn't know who he was though. Other rappers clearly respected dude though.
There’s a lot of black J Cole and Kendrick fans fool, especially J Cole
That idiot is trying to get at only cacs fukking with j cole when that is far from true...
J Cole has a strong black female fanbase as well...prolly the strongest out of the modern rappers.
One of my exes was a huge j cole fan. I figured he had a big female following.

His fans keep describing him the way you would describe a free throw.Don't hate, He's a very precise with his rhymes dude.
Super consistent on the tracks fam.
very reliable with his bars homie
he lands a high percentage of his flows breh.
I wouldn't say he chose to be indie....he was signed to 3-4 labels and didn't go anywhere on any of them. I don't remember the label but he was even briefly signed to Quincy Jones WB imprint.
Granted, I'm talking early in his career. I remember seeing his CDs for sale in Recycled Sounds on Main and 7th Heaven on Troost....this was the early 90's. The first album on Strange Music was "Absolute Power" in 2002, so he was trying to get on for damn near a decade before going indie.
The next year he was touring with ICP, after that his career in the underground blew up.
I didn't know a single black person that fukked with him, outside of a couple songs.
Went to Central, Paseo and Westport....graduated in 1995, was all over the city all through the 90's and nobody was really playing his shyt. Which is why I'm not clowning him for the ICP shyt, it's not as if he got support on a grass roots level from his own city.
I definitely agree he was well respected among rappers....but then again so is K-rino and rap fans clown the fukk out of him. It is what it is.
