Saltine aka The Mad Rapper

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Recording artist. After investigation, I believe the topic fails WP:N/WP:MUSIC since I can't find reliable sources covering the topic as required. Unless anyone else can, the article should be deleted. The most notable claims from the article are: Amalthea 19:11, 2 October 2013 (UTC)
 * He enjoyed "global airplay". I find no sources to support that, but wouldn't really know where to look
 * One of his songs was used in a notable TV series, supported by a tv.com link
 * "Garned high praise from widely respected Billboard magazine" -- the best I can find about this is a digital image of that praise, but neither the song nor the artist seem to be listed at billboard.com at the moment.
 * Comment The review was in a 1997 issue of Billboard seen here. Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 22:23, 2 October 2013 (UTC)
 * Thanks, that matches the image. Amalthea  15:38, 7 October 2013 (UTC)
