I declined this speedy because it seems to assert notability. It seems this performer may be close to breaking into notability but doesn't seem to be there quite yet. I leave to the community to determine. JodyB talk 23:38, 17 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

  • Weak delete - Very close to notability, but an extreme conflict of interest. If we can fix this, however, I would probably lean towards a very weak delete. TNP (formerly Jonathan) 00:09, 18 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. Conflict of interest is not a valid reason for deletion. One of the sources states "[Rihanna's] “Bitch Im Special” was written and produced by Multi-platinum producer Chad B..." Even if that cannot be confirmed. Producers who worked with that many well-known artists, clearly had an effect on the music scene, and are thus notable. - Mgm|(talk) 08:58, 18 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
    • The source mentioned is a gossip blog reprinting a press release and therefore unreliable. —Hello, Control Hello, Tony 22:31, 18 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
    • Can you provide evidence to prove that. If true, that would definitely convince me to change my !vote. - Mgm|(talk) 00:29, 22 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
      • The article's subtitle: "UPDATE: PRESS RELEASE: NEW RIHANNA LEAKED DEMO"; from the site's About page: "Miss Xpose a.k.a 'The Skirt with Dirt'... her gossip blog 'Miss Xpose’s Blog Spot'... has given Miss Xpose the opportunity to launch her own gossip website". I do believe that he could be notable, I just don't know that he is yet. I haven't checked all of his song credits to see if any of them have been hits. With all the self-promotion, I doubt it—it would have been front and center in the article. It would appear that the most notable thing he has done (or may have done, in the absence of reliable sources) is produced a Rihanna track that was leaked. Even with a source, that's still not very notable. I did find that Chad Beats and Chad Beatz have both been deleted numerous times in the past and are now salted. Someone really wants to be in Wikipedia. —Hello, Control Hello, Tony 02:38, 22 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
        • Sheesh, I had no idea that the guy made several other articles about himself. Ugh.--CyberGhostface (talk) 15:53, 22 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
