Contested prod. Does not meet WP:MUSIC. First single was just released. Lacks significant coverage in 3rd party reliable sources. No indication of awards, charting, release of albums on significant labels, etc. Previous work with Lil' Wayne warrants a mention on that page but not a dedicated article.

 * Delete – Article lacks sufficient Attribution for Verifiability of the WP:BAND notability criteria … MySpace and NN blogs just don't cut it. Happy Editing! &mdash;  00:03, 5 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep – He is a notable musician. The article is sourced and he is part of a major singer group (Young Money Entertainment). He has released several mixtapes and sung and co-wrote the song Every Girl. He also has several other singles and has appeared in some music videos. As i said the article is sourced greatly. He is very notable plus has made several performances with Young Money Entertainment. He meets WP:MUSIC. GreenBayPackersfan09 (talk) 19:37, 5 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Comment it's poorly sourced. This artist is mentioned only in passing in the Billboard article, the Lil Wayne website isn't a 3rd party source in this instance and is only mentioned in passing (a single sentence), Wikipedia articles should not be used as a reference, and the reliability of SOHH is not clear.  This article still doesn't pass notability guidelines, particularly the requirement of "significant coverage in 3rd party sources".  Might be notable one day, but not now.--RadioFan (talk) 11:51, 6 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Comment – No matter how much lipstick I put on this pig, it's still just weapons-grade Vanispamcruftisement. &mdash; 141.156.175.125 (talk) 18:53, 6 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Comment – For all these Young Money artists, why not make a 'List of Young Money artists' thing and put them over there? --Unti987 (talk) 23:25, 9 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete Insufficient coverage in independent reliable sources. Not notable. - SummerPhD (talk) 16:26, 10 August 2009 (UTC)

 * Delete not notable. Wether B (talk) 22:02, 11 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep he was in a song that charted in the US Top 10 and is a member of one of the most know record labels in rap music today (i'm not a fan of young money but i must give it notability). Str8cash (talk) 22:06, 11 August 2009 (UTC)
 * I'm not sure that this helps cement his notability. What was his role there?  Was he a featured artist or part of the larger ensemble?--RadioFan (talk) 16:16, 16 August 2009 (UTC)


 * Delete per nomination, this person is in no way notable. JBsupreme (talk) 06:44, 18 August 2009 (UTC)
