The result was delete. The consensus (just) is that the article subject isn't notable, but I wouldn't have any issue with someone trying again in a few months with a Draft article, if they can find some more reliable and more extensive sources Nick (talk) 18:19, 1 June 2020 (UTC)

Hello Praxidicae.

Page is definitely being used as paid promotion. Selective information is suspicious. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 194.207.236.95 (talk) 08:29, 18 May 2020 (UTC)

It is also fair to assume https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/5.198.8.143 is Alex Larkman himself. See how he changes the grammar and tone of his writing when he is switching to his 'Sarah' persona.

• Weak delete The Source is a decent source for hip-hop, but that's probably not enough. OhNoitsJamie ^Talk 20:37, 18 May 2020 (UTC)
• Keep The Source and ThisIs50 are sources for hip hop. Also noted, the musician charted on Billboard. Sweetteaplz (talk) 17:30, 21 May 2020 (UTC)

• Keep: I found a few reliable sources about him outside The Source and ThisIs50: Influencer, Latestly and Vents. The article needs some clean-up, but it's good enough to pass WP:PRODUCER. My vote stands. ASTIG😎 _{(ICE T • ICE CUBE)} 06:23, 28 May 2020 (UTC)

Superastig none of those sources are reliable, in fact vents has long since been a different site than it originally was and is now operated by black hat SEO that do pay for publishing. Lastestly is laughably bad annd the influencerupdate...well that should be blacklisted. Praxidicae (talk) 18:05, 1 June 2020 (UTC)
