Hello. Expect a full review within the next couple of days, if not sooner. Carbrera (talk) 19:07, 20 December 2020 (UTC).
 * Any progress on this since it has been a couple of days by now? --K. Peake 21:30, 22 December 2020 (UTC)
 * – my apologies, Kyle. I will work on this so it's ready before tomorrow. Someone in my immediate family tested positive with COVID (from their job) so I haven't been on Wikipedia as much as I would like. But no worries, as it will not interfere with my GA review.

 * That is a perfectly excusable reason to have not started the review even though it is very unfortunate to here from you on a personal basis – hope you do not get COVID-19 and my prayers go out to you as well as your family! I will be able to respond tomorrow despite working during the afternoon here in the UK. --K. Peake 18:49, 23 December 2020 (UTC)
 * – thanks for the well wishes and your understanding. Fortunately, I have tested negative. I did not know you were based in the UK but I'll remember that for the future! Happy holidays, Carbrera (talk) 18:51, 23 December 2020 (UTC).

Infobox

 * In T.I.'s chronology box, the "Ye vs the People" is missing a "."
 * ✅ --K. Peake 07:56, 24 December 2020 (UTC)

Lead

 * As Lamont Dozier, Brian Holland, and Edward Holland Jr. are credited as songwriters, could this sentence ("The song was solely produced by West, who co-wrote it with T.I., Lamont Dozier, and Brian and Eddie Holland.") benefit from a mention that the latter three artists are credited because it samples their song "7 Rooms of Gloom"? Within the same sentence, perhaps?
 * ✅ but I sourced it in the body first --K. Peake 07:56, 24 December 2020 (UTC)


 * "7 Rooms of Gloom" should be surrounded by quotation marks because it is a song
 * ✅ --K. Peake 07:56, 24 December 2020 (UTC)


 * It is not incorrect or anything, but something about "included" in "standing as the first time a track with T.I. included reached the chart since 2014." sounds a bit off to me. Maybe "featured" would be better replacement?
 * ✅ but did not put featured since the other song had him as a lead artist; does this version look fine? --K. Peake 07:56, 24 December 2020 (UTC)

Release and reception

 * I'm afraid I do not recall where I heard about this policy, but I am fairly certain images with people facing in a specific direction should face the article and not the edge. I hope that makes sense (someone else worded it much better than I did). But if that's the case, the image should be moved to the right side. The first image used in the article meets this guideline, for example.
 * ❌ When there are multiple pieces of media, each one is supposed to be aligned to the different side as the preceding one --K. Peake 07:56, 24 December 2020 (UTC)


 * The infobox and lead mention that GOOD and Def Jam released the song but I don't see it anywhere in the prose; I would suggest adding that in this section
 * ✅ --K. Peake 07:56, 24 December 2020 (UTC)


 * Would it be worth mentioning that the song was available in both explicit and clean edits? I noticed the Apple Music link sourced here is for the clean edition, but an explicit one exists also (see).
 * ❌ this lacks notability because rap songs are commonly released in both explicit and clean versions; I could understand the case if the clean version had different lyrics instead of just censorship but that's not applicable here --K. Peake 07:56, 24 December 2020 (UTC)

Other
Regarding your prose, I did not find anything else that I, personally, would improve upon. Other than my questions raised in the "References" section, I believe the article to be verifiable as well. Everything else checks out. I will place this review on hold until you address me back. Thank you. Carbrera (talk) 23:05, 23 December 2020 (UTC).
 * I have replied to everything, are you willing to pass now? --K. Peake 07:56, 24 December 2020 (UTC)
 * I just had the chance to revisit the article and have determined that this article now meets the GA criteria. Thank you for your patience. I will be passing this now. Carbrera (talk) 01:11, 25 December 2020 (UTC).
