In a recent interview with Superstar Radio, DJ Whoo Kid, who is currently working with Tech N9ne on his first mixtape, entitled Bad Season, referred to Tech N9ne as “The king of all the fucking white trash people out there that love him—and I want that fanbase.”

This comment has been taken in various ways by fans on therealtechn9ne.com, ranging from humored indifference to racist accusations. Here’s a sample of some of the reactions…

“eh, im not mad by it at all, was a retarded comment though. somewhat disrespectful, yet i dont think he meant it that way. meh. shit who cares? lol”
“wtf is that bout?????? thats why tech should never hook up with any of these mainstream fucks, thats how they look at the #1 independent rapper in the world, fuck that shit!!!!!!!”
“Fuck whoo kid…i aint white”
“Did whoo kid say he wants that fanbase? Or doesn’t want that fanbase (the white trash lol)? Kinda fucked up but don’t take it to serious cuz its kinda true”
“first yelawolf wants tech’s fan base and now whoo kid”

Twitter Reactions:

“If anyone is mad for what @djwhookid said about @Techn9ne‘s fans they obviously don’t know anything about Whoo Kid’s persona.”
“@DJWhooKid it’s all good bro, I didn’t take any offense to it. It’s good to see @TechN9ne get all this exposure, it’s about time.”
