This article seems promotional, from the lack of editors and media coverage. Koala15 (talk) 23:37, 6 May 2013 (UTC)

 * Keep. Clearly notable given a couple of minutes of Google searching. --Michig (talk) 07:50, 7 May 2013 (UTC)
 * Comment - Can you point out which of these sources you found pass WP:RS? I am not sure it is that clear as my couple of minutes on Google found sources that are mainly passing mentions, broken links, and bios on self-published websites. If there is something that I missed, please point it out so that I can re-evaluate my delete !vote. Thanks. --FoolMeOnce2Times (talk) 15:09, 7 May 2013 (UTC)
 * These for example: Allmusic, Hip Hop in America: a Regional Guide, Hip Hop Connection, Seattle Post-Intelligencer, The Stranger, The Stranger, NPR, The Stranger, The Seattle Times, The Stranger, and possibly also North West Military. --Michig (talk) 17:57, 7 May 2013 (UTC)


 * Delete - After my delete !vote on Abyssinian Creole, I thought that this article had hope as there are many sources listed under the reference section. Unfortunately, they are broken links, self-published bios, and a few passing mentions. Not sure which one of them pass WP:RS. As such, this artist fails WP:GNG. --FoolMeOnce2Times (talk) 15:09, 7 May 2013 (UTC)
 * Comment - Keep - These would all be reliable sources from the Wiki article and more than "passing mentions", correct? WIRED Magazine, Discovery News, Seattle Weekly, The Stranger, San Francisco Weekly, San Francisco Bay Guardian, Okayplayer and The Seattle Times''. Also, I actually don't see a single self-published bio referenced in the Gabriel Teodros Wikipedia article, with the one exception of the link from Terrorbird, which is the 32nd reference and is only used to back up half of one sentence. All the reference links worked when they were originally posted, and should still be able to be found using either a google search or with the addresses typed into archive.org - 24.18.191.231 (talk) 04:22, 8 May 2013 (UTC)


 * Keep - I posted here a few days ago and haven't seen a response yet, but also in regards to the WP:RS and WP:GNG of this artist is his Lovework album, which received critical acclaim in Rolling Stone Magazine, URB (magazine), ColorLines, JIVE Magazine, Okayplayer, AllHipHop and more. - 24.18.191.231 (talk) 09:44, 10 May 2013 (UTC)
 * Keep per the sources above me. Seems to be notable. Unsure why it is promotional. Ramaksoud2000 (Talk to me) 04:03, 14 May 2013 (UTC)
