Apex (producer)

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Notability is not inherited. Lacks independent reliable sources. The only references this article provide are to his personal website and his personal twitter account which are not independent nor reliable. Also, this has been flagged for update since 2013 but hasn't been updated since Butch.labajo (talk) 14:04, 25 April 2018 (UTC)
 * Automated comment: This AfD was not correctly transcluded to the log (step 3). I have transcluded it to Articles for deletion/Log/2018 April 25.  —cyberbot I   Talk to my owner :Online 14:22, 25 April 2018 (UTC)

 * Keep and improve - plenty of coverage in WP:RS online, including the Uproxx interview already cited. The Mighty Glen (talk) 14:44, 25 April 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete: contrary to the editor above, I can't find very much coverage at all about this person, and what coverage there is relates to legal issues over the beat for "I Got Money", e.g., making it a bit of a WP:ONEVENT. None of the other songs produced by this person are notable, and there is no coverage of him or his productions beyond this legal case – the HipHopDx article is an interview and therefore primary source, and the Uproxx article is merely a repost of a video interview (another primary source) from another website, which is now dead and can't be viewed anyway, so really there's very little material out there. His "official website" now apparently redirects to a website for an entirely different company.
 * Please note that this person is NOT the same as this music producer, about whom there is plenty of coverage online, mostly regarding his death. Also, if this article is deleted, then Apex production discography should be deleted as well. Richard3120 (talk) 20:22, 25 April 2018 (UTC)


 * Delete The (handy, dandy) Search Tools (at the top of each and every AfD nomination) produce zero results, not even a google image. The sources listed in the article are definitely not WP:RS, and statements like "plenty of coverage" need to be augmented with plenty of articles, etc. Been here way too long.
