 * Comment The subject of this article is not the songwriting partnership of Nicky Chinn and Mike Chapman, though its Infobox is presenting Associated acts of those others. AllyD (talk) 11:27, 23 May 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete (possible CSD: I am finding no evidence of any such band. The names match those of the 70s writing partnership, the second sentence is lifted from the City_Girls article, and the Infobox is presenting bands with no visible association to this particular subject. Lacking all references, this falls under WP:BLP and possibly CSD G2/A11. AllyD (talk) 11:36, 23 May 2020 (UTC)
 * Speedy delete: fails WP:GNG and WP:BAND, and in fact, is this actually a hoax? It's not just that it's unsourced and there are no sources to be found... what are the chances of the two members having exactly the same names as the famous 1970s British glam rock writing/production partnership? And what do their names have to do with the names of two neighborhoods in Miami? Even if the band exists, there is literally nothing from which to construct even the basis of an article.

 * Speedy Delete - it meets the CSD criteria. - Aaqib Anjum Aafī (talk) 11:26, 24 May 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete per Richard3120. This article looks like a hoax. There are two well-known musicians named Nicky Chinn and Mike Chapman, the same names as the members of this band, but they don't appear to be the same people as the band described in this article. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 00:20, 25 May 2020 (UTC)
