 * Hello, I'm  Azealia 911  talk  and today I'll be reviewing this nomination.

Lead and infobox

 * The cover artwork requires an WP:ALT.
 * Remove '(Deluxe Edition)' and '(Original Motion Picture Soundtrack)', also, is this a single from both? Bearing in mind that if something is a single from an album, it's promoting the album at the same time as the single.
 * "a song by American rapper" → "a song recorded by American rapper"
 * "played on an ice cream truck" → "played by an ice cream truck."
 * "album Watch My Mouth." → "album Watch My Mouth (2009)."

Background and release

 * "The songs did not meet with Ghuman’s approval." Reword, something like "Ghuman rejected the songs"

Composition

 * Per WP:NFCC #8, unfree content can only be used if it significantly increase readers' understanding of the article topic, and its omission would be detrimental to that understanding. The soundclip seems to just have been added as an aesthetic boost and provides no further information, so remove it.

Music video

 * WP:NFCC #8 again, the image doesn't add any contextual significance to the article, and this is now the third piece of unfree content you're using in a relatively stubby article. Per, NFCC #3, you should minimalise usage of unfree content.
 * "did a commercial" I think you mean shot, or filmed.

Track listing

 * The track listing needs sourcing.
 * Acapella is presented as one word in the source I imagine you got the track lsiting from (here or here?).

Overall

 * GA review (see here for what the criteria are, and here for what they are not)


 * 1) It is reasonably well written.
 * a (prose, spelling, and grammar): b (MoS for lead, layout, word choice, fiction, and lists):
 * 1) It is factually accurate and verifiable.
 * a (reference section): b (citations to reliable sources):  c (OR):  d (copyvio and plagiarism):
 * 1) It is broad in its coverage.
 * a (major aspects): b (focused):
 * 1) It follows the neutral point of view policy.
 * Fair representation without bias:
 * 1) It is stable.
 * No edit wars, etc.:
 * 1) It is illustrated by images and other media, where possible and appropriate.
 * a (images are tagged and non-free content have fair use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):
 * 1) Overall:
 * Pass/Fail:
 * Sorry, but I'm afraid that there's just too many issues in this article for it to be passed as a good article. Over a quarter of your references are dead and unverifiable, and many of the working links are either unreliable or primary sources. The use of copyrighted material within the article is not justified, and there are sentences that are written poorly "with no music video released by him in a few months", "The songs did not meet with Ghuman’s approval". While I disagreed with the quick fail this article recieved a few days ago, I certainly cannot pass this, it requires significant work, a removal of copyrighted content, and possibly a copy edit.

 * Thinking about it, you're actually right. This article needs a lot more work. I've archived some links so far, but I'm noticing a lot more dead ones as I go along, and I've also been struggling to find articles about a live performance about this song. And yes, the single is for both albums, and I'll be adding a iTunes source about the soundtrack album soon among other improvements I'll be doing, but I'm very busy right now. I appreciate the review and I guess I'll have to take more time before I nominate an article for GA. Hope you're doing well. editorEهեইдအ😎 22:02, 2 March 2016 (UTC)
