Let's do something fun: Most famous black person from Each state.

[KBadd]

Everyone here that says Maryland just keeps ignoring Kevin Durant

Not ignoring him, but at their peaks, I wouldn’t say KD is more famous than either Ray or Martin.

 

[Lucky_Lefty]

Mississippi - Oprah

Defining what makes someone “from” a state can get tricky, but can we agree that we’re talking about most famous TODAY? Some of these old heads (like the great Miles Davis), clearly don’t belong on this list.

 

[Eastside Get The Money]

Magic's more famous than Malcolm X worldwide.

Only really Black people and leftists care about Malcolm X in world sense.

Magic Johnson is one of the most famous people living.

When he came down HIV positive in 1991, literally every channel cut into programming to cover the press conference.

Dude was on the Dream Team and played for the Lakers, come on.

If it's not him, it's some of those Motown people like Stevie or Aretha, who are worldwide known too.

Nah, you got global historic icons like King, Kennedy, Castro, Mandela, Ghandi, X, etc.

Then you got generational celebrity icons like Jordan, Magic, Oprah

Magic is probably second coming out of Lansing but I gotta give it to Red

 

[Coco Loco]

Dave is from Montgomery County, Maryland a simple google search would've told you this but instead you wanted to try to correct me like the little dumb bytch you are and be wrong. fukking tramp

LMAOOOOOOO

 

[Coco Loco]

He’s from Silver Spring, he just went to high school in the city.

My bad

 

[Afrodroid]

Pac definitely deserves to be there. I’ve seen pac murals in my travels to Bali, Japan, Morocco, India, Iceland. I can’t say how big boxing was in those countries, but Pac had reach

Everyone knows Pac in Latin America, he is definitely one of the most recognized personalities in the world.

This is crazy given that he never toured outside the US

Kanye come on now

Completely forgot about Koonye

Dude, Mike Tyson was more famous than Michael Jordan, Magic Johnson, and everybody on the planet not named Muhammad Ali, Michael Jackson or Princess Diana in the late '80s.

2pac's more famous in death than he was in life and still isn't as famous as a prime Mike Tyson

mf I’m from and live in Chicago but you’re gonna tell me more about my own city than I know

them nikkas haven’t even been seen here or even talked about like that for years, going on decades but you know and I clearly said world wide which “most famous” would apply to...

breh talk to yourself from this point forward...

Dummy, this isn't about who's more famous IN Chicago, it's about who's more famous in the WHOLE WORLD.

I don't give a fukk what you dusty nikkaz in Chicago think, people in Indonesia know Obama's from fukking Chicago

And eat a dikk as well

These young kids know nothing about Miles Davis. On the flip side, senior citizens know who Kanye and R. Kelly are.

Maybe, but the Obamas are more famous than both

Nah, you got global historic icons like King, Kennedy, Castro, Mandela, Ghandi, X, etc.

Then you got generational celebrity icons like Jordan, Magic, Oprah

Magic is probably second coming out of Lansing but I gotta give it to Red

Dude, you think the average Asian person in fukking Cambodia knows who Malcolm X is?

No, but American capitalism is everywhere.

The Olympics are everywhere and the Dream Team are the most famous athletic team in history.

The NBA is full of Europeans and Africans now because of the fukking Dream Team.
