Musician must inarguably lead the band, so no RATM stuff or Clarence Clemons, etc.

I think Michael Jackson would have a black fandom slightly above their gen pop percentage, so a better answer would be a musician whose black fans are far fewer than 13%

I was considering Bob Marley. But you must factor in his afro-caribe fans, which probably boosts his black listenership well above 13%

Good list. Could add a few more recent black pop singers too. But in current age, even people who make the radio aren't terribly well known.

i wonder who would win among artists with at least 13% black fanbase.

Chuck Berry is the only true black to have a devoted following among whites only. Everyone else on this list is less black than Chuck Berry, or their followers are just typical "fans" and not die-hard enthusiasts, or they have lots of black fans.

Both have black fans. Berry deliberately tailored his image and sound to appeal to whites, never wrote a single song for black audiences, always acted 100% white in public.

any sort of 'old school hip-hop' is almost exclusively listened to in 2021 by a combination of hipsters and dorky fat white gen-x'ers (or even boomers). stuff like 'de la soul' or 'arrested development' or 'slick rick' and so on. their fanbases are white as fuck nowadays.
