Non-notable rapper lacking Ghits and GNEWS of substance. Appears to fail WP:BIO and WP:MUSIC. Should have been speedy, but CSD was removed by SPA.  ttonyb (talk) 06:26, 15 May 2010 (UTC)


 * Article shouldn't be deleted. Person exists, information needs citations but seems non-biased. Article is written in third person and complies with wikipedia policies. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Jac1318 (talk • contribs) 06:31, 15 May 2010 (UTC)
 * to add according to WP:Music artist is notable if they are the leader in a certain scene or city.... ive never heard of any other rappers out of the st. petersburg area.... has a small cult following as well on youtube with fellow "internet rappers" —Preceding unsigned comment added by Jac1318 (talk • contribs) 06:37, 15 May 2010 (UTC)


 * Delete I have read WP:MUSIC and unfortunately I didn't see anything about a leader in a scene or city being notable. Besides that, I couldn't find any independent coverage. Just because someone exists doesn't mean it should have an article. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 10:26, 15 May 2010 (UTC)

 * Delete per Narutolovehinata5. GregorB (talk) 11:40, 15 May 2010 (UTC)

per WP:MUSIC and i quote "Has become one of the most prominent representatives of a notable style or the most prominent of the local scene of a city" he's prominent in his scene —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.187.46.194 (talk) 14:30, 15 May 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete. Quite a claim there. Would be easy to back it up with reliable sources and significant coverage. No? Oh well. Rehevkor ✉  14:40, 15 May 2010 (UTC)


 * Comment - yeah well just because he isnt huge doesnt mean he isnt significant.... all im saying is i googled his name and he has followers.... i didnt write the article but i think its valid —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.187.46.194 (talk) 16:00, 15 May 2010 (UTC)


 * Delete: I can't find significant coverage for this musician. Joe Chill (talk) 02:04, 16 May 2010 (UTC)


 * Comment - hes significant enough to get 1,000 hits in one day..... i dont see the point in deleting a true article.... —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.187.46.194 (talk) 05:10, 16 May 2010 (UTC)


 * Comment – #1 - 1,000 hits/day is minor. #2 - Web hits is not a criteria in WP:BAND.  ttonyb  (talk) 14:45, 16 May 2010 (UTC)


 * Comment - however it does say that if he is significant in some scene then he is a real musician.... st. pete and the internet.... internet rapping has become its own phenomena —Preceding unsigned comment added by Jac1318 (talk • contribs) 06:05, 17 May 2010 (UTC)


 * Comment – Not really, all it means is that he has that many hits. It does not say why they went to the page or if it was a robot vs. a real person.  Like I said, 1000 hits/days is not very much.  No one is doubting that he is a real musician, only that he meets the Wikipedia criteria for notability.   ttonyb  (talk) 19:34, 22 May 2010 (UTC)
