Africa 100

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

I see no point in this entry. This is just a rehash of a Pitchfork article. This isn't even a real album, it's just a theoretical mixtape a Pitchfork writer created. This is not referenced by any other reliable independent sources. I don't believe this deserves an article, and under the notability requirement mentioned in WP:MUSIC and WP:GNG, I recommend this is nominated for deletion.D1119 (talk) 18:52, 16 March 2020 (UTC)

 * Delete only source that discusses it is the Pitchfork article itslef. I was able to find passing mentions in sources like https://www.austinchronicle.com/daily/music/2013-08-07/hard-proof-afrobeat-honoring-its-moniker/ https://www.chicagoreader.com/chicago/africa-50-years-of-music-box-set-album-review/Content?oid=2848922 and https://www.getintothis.co.uk/2014/06/top_10_african_tracks/ but there's no WP:SIGCOV of this work, not even at AllMusic: https://www.allmusic.com/album/100-beats-african-100-beats-and-grooves-from-the-african-world-mw0002003947 .

 * Delete - This is not really an album. The author at Pitchfork listed his favorite songs in the genre then someone else put together a playlist that has become an unofficial mixtape among collectors. That sequence of events is of interest to the folks back at Pitchfork but the previous voters are correct on the collection's lack of significant coverage. ---  DOOMSDAYER 520 (Talk&#124;Contribs) 01:40, 19 March 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete. The playlist fails WP:GNG and WP:NALBUM. It has not been discussed in reliable sources.  Versace1608   Wanna Talk? 13:53, 22 March 2020 (UTC)
