Joe Gotti

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

Repeatedly prodded Memphis-based underground rapper, producer, and public-access TV host. Only one passing WP:RS mention found. No evidence of notability per WP:MUSIC. The 2nd prod was dubiously reasoned, but this person is not notable. • Gene93k (talk) 15:32, 19 August 2008 (UTC)

 * Comment. Confusingly, there is another rapper using the name Bazooka Joe Gotti. Joe Gotti appears to have directed a film/dvd "187 South Street", and judging by his MySpace, may have released 3 albums, but I couldn't find any coverage to confirm this. Looks like he might justify an article, but not unless sufficient coverage exists.--Michig (talk) 10:09, 25 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete: These days, released albums do not testify to much, as we live in a world of inexpensive CD duplicators.  We'd need a non-vanity label, sales, and significance.  This is, more or less, advertising.  Utgard Loki (talk) 14:59, 25 August 2008 (UTC)
