This is a non-notable Christian hip-hop artist who fails WP:MUSIC. Sources cited are primary sources or the unreliable type, no evidence of non-trivial coverage from actual reliable third party publications. JBsupreme (talk) 16:17, 22 November 2008 (UTC)


 * Delete for reasons I have outlined as nominator. JBsupreme (talk) 16:18, 22 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep One of his albums was nominated for a Grammy Award (I replaced the ref with a more reliable one)—meets WP:MUSIC criterion #8. Article needs a hearty re-write, though. — Hello, Control Hello, Tony  16:28, 22 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep More known than many who still have articles on Wikipedia. BritishWatcher (talk) 16:57, 22 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep I actually found it quite informative. Needs a bit of cleanup, more links, but it's better than a lot of other articles I have seen. TopGearFreak   Talk  17:03, 22 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep as he was nominated for a Grammy, meeting the notability guideline for music. MuZemike  ( talk ) 17:07, 22 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep One source is to the official site, and one is to what seems like a fansite. Why are the other ones not reliable? Dove award wins and Grammy nominations are easy to verify, the refs just aren't in the article yet. (That's a fixable issue) - Mgm|(talk) 20:10, 22 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep. This substantial bio at allmusic, a couple of substantial reviews also at allmusic, a Grammy nomination, plenty of coverage elsewhere. Clearly not a deletion candidate I think.--Michig (talk) 21:35, 22 November 2008 (UTC)
