Unable to find any reliable sources independent of the subject to sufficiently establish notability. His song "Every Day is a Gunshot" is highlighted in the article but I can find no evidence that it charted anywhere or was nominated for any awards. The article also states that the song was used in the film The Bank Job, but I can find nothing to verify this. The score of the film doesn't contain it. The Wikipedia page for the film lists it as on the soundtrack, (as "Gunshot"), but that is unsourced and I can find no reliable sources to verify it. Even if it is on the soundtrack, without non-trivial coverage I do not believe the page passes WP:MUSICBIO or WP:GNG. J04n(talk page) 17:31, 2 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. I've added a source from an encyclopedia on Caribbean music. I'm fairly sure I can find more - will take another look later.--Michig (talk) 17:35, 2 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Note: now tidied up, sourced and expanded.--Michig (talk) 08:02, 4 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Withdrawing nomination, the expansion and sourcing of the article by Michig satisfy WP:GNG. J04n(talk page) 11:27, 4 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
