Talk:Rendezvous (playlist)

Edit to article
Hi I appreciate your edits to the article, but I have to revert your edit because Rendezvous was not released as an album. I plan on expanding the article once I complete another article I'm working on. All of the sources online refer to it as a playlist. Please check out the following: Pulse Nigeria, Vibe.ng, Music in Africa, Nigerian Entertainment Today, and TooXclusive.  Versace1608  Wanna Talk? 17:11, 6 April 2019 (UTC)
 * I disagree on the difference between an playlist and an album, or maybe a mixtape, but will leave that to the community. The article will get attention due to its presence at Category:Album articles with non-standard infoboxes. The term "playlist" for this item really strikes me as a meaningless gimmick. And if it "was not released as an album" it probably shouldn't be displayed with the Album Infobox. Also note that "Album" is in the article title. ---  DOOMSDAYER 520 (Talk&#124;Contribs) 17:18, 6 April 2019 (UTC)
 * I did not create the article Doomsdayer520. You can clearly see from the sources I have cited here that Rendezvous is a playlist and not an album. The artist himself described it as such. I am going to expand the article drastically once I finish Odysseus.  Versace1608   Wanna Talk? 17:29, 6 April 2019 (UTC)

Rendezvous (M.I Abaga album) - Correction
Hi Versace1608 the album is stylized as a playlist and this I think doesn't make it a playlist. The creative concept is for it to be a play through album

 * Rendezvous was not released as an album. The references in the article support this info and the rapper himself considers the project a playlist. According to numerous sources, M.I's decision to create a playlist was inspired by Drake's More Life project. Keep in mind that Drake's body of work was released as a commercial mixtape, although he refers to it as a playlist. If you go by this deductive reasoning, Rendezvous should be a commercial mixtape, not an album. However, it was not released as a commercial mixtape. Let's play devil's advocate and deduce that Rendezvous is a studio album. This would mean that said project is M.I's fourth studio album. If this is the case, then what was Yung Denzel released as? Sources here, here and here state that Yung Denzel was released as the rapper's fourth studio album. We do not have sources citing Yung Denzel as his fifth studio album.

 * M.I announced Yxng Dxnzl but went on to release Rendezvous this was the release concept as Yxng Dxnzl has been anticipated by his fans. Everyone expected Yxng Dxnzl but he went on to release Rendezvous. We can move to the article talk page on this issue Fatherred (talk) 13:57, 17 April 2019 (UTC)


 * Like I said, the playlist was not released as an album. The number of sources that refer to it as a playlist far outweighs the ones that call it an album. If you still disagree, open a case at WP:DRN. I'm sure someone else might explain things better to you. If Rendezvous is an album, what type of album is it? If your answer to this question is "studio", then your argument is contradictory to say the least. Two albums cannot be released as a singular fourth studio album. Rendezvous and Yung Denzel are two projects, not one.    Versace1608   Wanna Talk? 17:08, 17 April 2019 (UTC)
