Article is about a hip-hop duo but makes no claims to notability and is basically a discography. No Sources . The duo have been active for only a couple of years and I can't see any evidence of success/recognition/reliable coverage online.

Comment: this boils down to whether the chart positions on two Billboard charts for one of their singles is enough to make them notable – those chart positions can be confirmed [1], [2]. Coverage in Billboard is very brief: there are some details about the group members and release date for their album here [3], and a couple of even briefer passing mentions [4], [5]. Struggling to find anything that talks about the duo enough to create anything more than a stub article. Perhaps the verifiable charting information about the single could be merged to Wade Robson#Early career where the group are already mentioned.

Keep Per WP:Music, an artist is notable if "Has had a single or album on any country's national music chart." They have a charting single (2 really as one of their other singles made it on one of Billboard's Bubbling under charts), they were signed to a major label, affiliated with Michael Jackson, their album featured several notable producers (i.e. Redman and Teddy Riley). The article probably wont go past stub level but they are notable. Beast from da East (talk) 03:35, 9 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Keep They were basically a one-hit wonder, but they meet the conditions set for musical notability by having a charting hit and album. I remember the promotions from the time (the other act being promoted was Brownstone, which made it somewhat bigger!) Orderinchaos 08:01, 9 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
