Low (Juicy J song)

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

This song charted 1 week (COMPONENT chart, not main) on R&B/Hip Hop and is almost a year old (aka Juicy J is likely to leave it off the album in place of the singles he's dropped in 2015) BlaccCrab (talk) 17:09, 19 May 2015 (UTC)


 * Strong keep: What exactly does the song being one year old have to do with it's verifiable-ness? Or the fact that it may or may not appear on an album? There have been singles released 2-3 years before being included on an album, Y.U.Mad by Birdman was released in 2011, his album still hasn't surfaced but there's no sign of it being left off. 212 by Azealia Banks was released in 2011, and still made an appearance on her 2014 album. "aka Juicy J is likely to leave it off" you have no source to back it up, the point you're making is original research You already gave my reasoning for keeping the article for me, it charted. Along with the fact it's been covered by a dozen or so reliable third-party sources. No idea why this was nommed for deletion, it easily meets notability guidelines, other points about the fact it's a year old and may not appear on the artists new album mean nothing.

 * Keep I agree with the above comment. Not sure how this doesn't meet notability guidelines based on the fact that it might not appear on his album? It is a song by a notable subject that charted and features numerous other notable subjects. It also received quite a bit of media coverage (some of which isn't even included in the article). If anything, someone might want to add some of the newer references that are available. Otherwise, this is a well-written article about a clearly notable subject that uses plenty of reliable and verifiable sources. gargleafg (talk) 23:22, 19 May 2015 (UTC)
 * Keep per reasons cited above —Мандичка YO 😜 00:03, 20 May 2015 (UTC)

Haha ok, when this gets scrapped just like "One Of Those Nights" does because it flopped, come back to me. No one outside of hip hop fans know that this exists. It didn't even hit the Bubbling Under Hot 100. Where is all this "significant coverage" you speak of? XXL Mag? It's irrelevant. I'll be sure to come back when it's not on the final tracklist.

 * "No one outside of hip hop fans know that this exists." Not only is this an assumption, it's incorrect. I wouldn't consider myself a rap fan, I like a couple artists, but I knew of this song. Even if it doesn't make the final cut...so what? Nowhere in the notability guidelines for song creation does it state that a song has to be on an album to have independent article. The significant coverage comes from MusicTimes, Billboard, Spin, Complex, which are all sourced in the article itself. So please do come and renominate it when it doesn't make the cut for Pure THC, because it'll just be decided to be kept again, due to the same amount of notable coverage in the article that was a deciding factor this time.

 * Strongest possible keep This article clearly passes all notability guidelines, such as the fact that it charged number 1 for some time. Also, it receieved significant coverage, that's enough for notability, "ongoing coverage" is not required. SilverSurfingSerpant (talk) 01:48, 25 May 2015 (UTC)

It charged number 1? hahah, it barely charted in the hip hop charts and the only reason it did is because it was produced by Dr. Luke and featured Nicki Minaj. Didn't know songs could go #1 without even hitting the hot 100.
