Joseph "808" Derivé

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

It's all fake - I can't find any sources to support any of the claims at Joseph "808" Derivé, and I can find sources to refute some. For example, this person is claimed to be the producer of Bad Boys (Alexandra Burke song) (actually produced by The Phantom Boyz) and Loud (Rihanna album) (multiple producers, but not this guy). Some of the works mentioned have had their articles changed to say that Phines/808/Derivé is a producer, but there's no sourcing for it - see. There are lots of Google hits for Phines/808/Derivé but all look to be user-generated and I can find no proper sources. Neatsfoot (talk) 10:38, 3 November 2014 (UTC)
