Questionable notability – I haven't researched it a lot, and article makes some nice claims, but I'm finding few reliable sources on Google searches. Also, musicians are usually not notable when they first sign onto a record label. Jamie S93^❤ 22:53, 20 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

~~Delete~~ Keep The article seems too promotional and the sources seem inadequate for a BLP. Colonel Warden (talk) 14:23, 3 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

If it is promotional, then it needs to be rewritten, that is not a reason for deletion.

"A Maejor Star is Born" - The Michigan Daily

"Beat Maejor" - The Michigan Daily

"Bei Major Inks Deal With Jive Records" - SingersRoom

How are these three not sufficient in and of themselves to confer notability? Silver seren^C 20:02, 3 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Those sources do look good. Well done. Colonel Warden (talk) 23:58, 3 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

._. ...those were already in the article in the first place though. Silver seren^C 00:01, 4 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

They were buried in the external links which seemed at first glance to be PR stuff. Mea culpa. Colonel Warden (talk) 00:08, 4 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Seems like plenty of notable coverage to me. Dream Focus 21:03, 3 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
