Comedy hip hop

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

Seems like original research. A Google search reveals a mirror of this article and no sites recognising this as a valid sub-genre of hip hop. Spellcast 08:54, 20 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Weak Keep When I searched under Google, I used Comedy Rap instead, and found that VH-1 does classify Comedy Rap as a genre. The only problem is that while their list does include rappers like Afroman the artists it is mainly referring to are ones like Jamie Kennedy, Biz Markie, and DJ Jazzy Jeff & The Fresh Prince. --Alessandro 10:20, 20 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment If kept, should probably be renamed to Comedy Rap. --Alessandro 10:21, 20 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Yeah, I agree. --  ¤ The-G-Unit-฿oss ¤   10:10, 26 October 2007 (UTC)


 * Weak Delete It's my opinion that a reasonable article could be written about this subject, but this mess of original research isn't it, and it might be better to just start over. No prejudice against recreation of this article with different contents, and improvements to the existing one could convince me to change my !vote. JavaTenor 18:08, 20 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Yeah I'd support recreation if it can be sourced. WP:V and WP:OR is non-negotiable and the page is just riddled with unsourced info and OR for me to support keeping it right now. Spellcast 05:57, 21 October 2007 (UTC)


 * Strong delete: This is basically an article about when rappers say things that are funny. It not a genre.Cosprings 16:15, 21 October 2007 (UTC)
