- Sorry, what I meant was that the entry would serve to verify the facts claimed in the article. The day's been a bit busier than I was expecting, so I was unable to do the fact-chasing for this article that I was hoping to do. At the very least, one can verify things such as the label to which they are signed and the existence of their albums (and possibly chart positions) via that website.

- Keep They have released multiple albums on multiple highly-notable labels, satisfying WP:MUSIC. I can't find any links verifying album chart positions, but their albums have been verifiably reviewed in important music publications such as The Source. -- Kicking222 01:07, 4 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep Above The Law is notable at least for the dispute over who created the G-funk hip-hop style, Dr. Dre or them. Static Universe 16:22, 8 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
