COI issues and looks like a vanity page. The claims to notability involve working with a notable producer, but I can't find any references to back that up. Creator had also removed producer credits from the noted tracks in other WP articles and replaced it with the subject of this article. Shadowjams (talk) 18:57, 27 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

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

Delete Definite COI/vanity article. As to the subject's notability...well, that's a bit trickier. The subject of this article, it is asserted, has worked with a number of well-known American singers and rappers. However, I wasn't able to find anything to back most of these claims up, leading me to believe that this might be a hoax. For example, the subject of the article supposedly produced a single by the rapper Flo Rida recently; however, this article is the only Google hit for Arrowstar and Flo Rida. There is one exception, however; it seems that "Flight School" by GLC may, in fact, have been produced by someone named Arrowstar. That's according to several web pages I located using Google; however, none of them qualify as reliable sources. One last note: the subject of this article has a (relatively new) account on MySpace on which he also claims to produce for Kanye West. That page also provides zero evidence to back up that claim.

Delete for lack of non-trivial sources, some parts cut of whole cloth. Ten Pound Hammer, his otters and a clue-bat • ^{(Many otters • One bat • One hammer)} 04:42, 3 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
