There is NO ONE who does not know.

Can you ever get to a point where audience knowledge is assumed. When Paul McCartney goes on a talk show do they say, "So, um, what do you do for a living?"

My sister's a casual fan, but the only reason she knows anything about them is because of me. Prior to me becoming a major fan, she only knew the hits and band members' names. She didn't know that Lindsey and Stevie dated, or even that Lindsey's an American. As much as we know all the details, many still don't.

As for Paul McCartney, we know not all of Kanye's fans know who he is.
