Non-notable single-musician genre, prod removed. The article about the musician who invented this, Tunday Akintan, was deleted in August, though it's since been recreated. Prezbo (talk) 08:42, 11 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Wherever a musical genre has only one notable musician playing it, and the musician in question is claimed to be the creator, the article on the genre should be redirected to that on the musician. Here, the creator turned out to be not notable enough for a Wikipedia article (though it seemed to be a borderline case), so I have to say delete, with no prejudice against creation of a redirect once Mr. Akintan meets our notability guidelines. -- Blanchardb -^{Me•MyEars•MyMouth}- timed 14:58, 11 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Delete: A non-notable genre from a musician that had an article deleted. Joe Chill (talk) 21:03, 11 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. See Unschool's comment on Tunday Akintan, too. -- Ankimai (talk) 06:12, 14 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Delete, not notable. Someone really wants to keep this: multiple sock accounts and an IP have removed the AfD tag over and over again. Hairhorn (talk) 16:38, 14 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Well-written article, but sadly, it isn't notable as the genre is only used by a performer that isn't notable either (and I also suspect sockpuppetry). THE AMERICAN METROSEXUAL 20:45, 14 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
