I think this article doesn't meet WP:BLP. The article makes claims of notability by saying that the artist has been mentioned in "a host of reviews including Hip Hop Connection and Big Smoke Magazine", but I can't find any actual articles to corroborate either claim. All the other references given on the page fail WP:RS in some way - a lot are blogs, some are links to Amazon products, some Youtube videos of songs he's made, and I see a handful of self-published data about albums. There's one link to a RollingStone article, but the article doesn't exist anymore, and I can't find a version of it anywhere. On top of all that, the article is being used for promotional purposes by, who I'm pretty sure is the subject of the article given this version of his talk page which points to the subject's MySpace. So overall, I'd say that notability is really sketchy, and the page is largely promotional. —  Hello Annyong  (say whaaat?!) 14:23, 26 May 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete Meets neither WP:BLP, nor WP:MUSIC. One of the group's members Sutten Catchy, created an autobiographical article a few weeks ago and it was speedied, recreated and speedied again with the user, also called Sutten Catchy, being blocked. I nominated that article for deletion for the same reasons as this one. I also think that the creator is also pretty much a Single Purpose Account and that the account should be considered for blocking. Fenix down (talk) 18:52, 26 May 2010 (UTC)
 * Comment: I initially thought of adding RTillery, Mud Family and Unfriendly Neighbours to this AfD for similar reasons. All of them have been largely edited by that account, which does seem to be an SPA. —  Hello Annyong  (say whaaat?!) 19:01, 26 May 2010 (UTC)

 * Comment I was going to suggest those three too, but didn't want to seem to have some sort of vendetta. I completely agree with your comment, though I think that this is only one of a sizeable number of UK music stubs concerning genres such as hip-hop and drum n bass that, whilst they are of significance to fans of those genres (of which I am one), they simply don't even meet WP:GNG.

 * Delete spam. looking at the creators username Rustyjay and the company that connects his articles RustyJukeBox and the nature of this article the coi appears clear. duffbeerforme (talk) 11:47, 1 June 2010 (UTC)
