 * – ( View AfD View log  •  )

Rapper with one album recently released. Scant evidence of notability. &mdash; RHaworth 06:01, 28 January 2010 (UTC)

 * Delete per nom - references are unimpressive. Chutznik (talk) 19:52, 28 January 2010 (UTC)
 * Weak Keep If nothing else, I think his Youtube for "Take U To Da Movies" getting almost 2 million views is notable Take U To Da Movies. At least it should go on List of Internet phenomena-but after all, Samwell's notability is based on What What (In the Butt) and both have articles, so who's to say ya boy Bangs can't?  Cuz you still got chance (in his words) Tom Danson (talk) 23:51, 28 January 2010 (UTC)
 * Weak Delete - An album produced indicates that he passes WP:MUSIC but it's self produced. Falcon8765 (talk) 18:55, 29 January 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete If he was an internet phenomenon then I would expect some Google News matches. At the moment, zero. Ash (talk) 19:03, 1 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Does MTV Iggy count as a source? Tom Danson (talk) 20:18, 1 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep Bangs is definitely notable, he recently performed at the Big Day Out festival WHY YALL HATIN ON MAH BOI BANGS??? 118.210.72.172 (talk) 03:02, 4 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete. Funny that we have an article for this guy, I just saw this video a few weeks ago.  Still, he's not notable, WP:BLP1E at best for the viral video.  If for some strange reason he actually gets signed and charts (or receives additional coverage) then it can be reconsidered then.   JBsupreme  ( talk ) 09:55, 5 February 2010 (UTC)
