This article is based solely on the Ozone magazine interview which makes it clear that this rapper has been signed to Warner based on their mixtape. A GNews search shows nothing that might indicate that this artist meets WP:MUSICBIO at this time. Social network references and self-promotional "buzz" about viral videos are rarely sufficient to address the notability guidelines. Fæ (talk) 22:21, 9 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - Aside from Ozone, there is a very brief mention here. Perhaps when he has released an album, things will change, but right now there is insufficient significant coverage in reliable sources to establish notability. -- Whpq (talk) 13:23, 12 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - He hasn't done anything yet. The article's only claim of significance is the Warner Bros. deal, which by itself isn't nearly enough. --Bongwarrior (talk) 09:24, 14 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.
