Not notable, no third party sources, and Google searches turn up no signs of notability or third party sources. The only label mentioned appears to be an equally non-notable vanity project. Hairhorn (talk) 01:10, 27 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete: I can't find significant coverage for this rapper. Joe Chill (talk) 01:13, 27 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - That's probably because his artist website for A & R Select was closed down, they took his $350 that he put into it, and never gave an explanation to anyone about their site, his page is no longer cached, but they will have a big lawsuit on their hands no doubt. Also, there is alot of coverage on him, on his facebook page. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.137.41.176 (talk) 02:43, 27 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
    • Comment: If true, this still would not explain the lack of third-party coverage (in other words, other people not connected to him writing about him) in reliable sources. — Gwalla | Talk 22:16, 30 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete. Doesn't appear to meet any criterion of WP:MUSICBIO either with the material presented or available via Google. Accounting4Taste:talk 22:56, 27 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - Does it help any, that other singers such as Justin Bieber, whose albums haven't sold at least gold is allowed on here? Is this not considered discrimination??—Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.137.41.176 (talk • contribs)
    • No, it does not help. Please see Wikipedia:Other stuff exists. •••Life of Riley (T–C) 22:03, 28 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
