 * Keep Verifiable. This musician sold a gold album. See Down for Life. --Ryan Delaney talk 03:32, 29 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom. The Down for Life article produces nothing about Shawty Lo. Tavix (talk) 05:21, 29 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep. He was a former member of the band that made Down for Life, so may pass WP:MUSIC. But more importantly, has a charting single on his own (criterion #2). Rigadoun (talk) 06:59, 29 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep, seems to satisfy notability criterion #2 under WP:MUSIC - Dumelow (talk) 21:53, 29 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment: Could the closing admin please take into account the comments on the page's talk page. J Milburn (talk) 13:35, 30 December 2007 (UTC)

 * Keep, the Billboard link indicates a charted single, which meets criterion #2 of WP:MUSIC. Ten Pound Hammer  and his otters • (Broken clamshells•Otter chirps) 16:07, 4 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep the charting on Billboard makes this person "notable" by the Wikipedia definition. The article otherwise needs work.  Lots of work.  Coccyx Bloccyx (talk) 19:32, 4 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep. He actually has WP:MUSIC covered in numerous ways: he's a member of a notable group (and this variety of notability is inherited), his single charted on a national chart, his record was placed in regular rotation, he (with his band) has a gold record. Easy keep. Xymmax (talk) 20:11, 4 January 2008 (UTC)
