Commmnt It seems that while DJ Abrantee does not have extensive coverage, he does have some minimal mention in sources, and we can source his awards and nominations. The BEFFTA (Black Entertainment, Film, Fashion, Television and Arts) Awards [1][2] and AMA (African Music Awards) [3] seem worth discussion in respects to WP:ANYBIO, as my initial observation shows an article created by someone who wishes to emulate other Wikipedia articles but who does not quite understand how its done and so is making the usual newb mistakes.... but style errors and lack of use of available sources are usually addressable.

Delete no claim of notability. Notable Ghanaian musicians and djs in London are remarkably common yet this one has no notability. MLA (talk) 22:30, 15 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Actually, the claim of notability is through the assertion of awards. While I agree that DJs are likely as common in London as anywhere, that "commonness" might make recognition through awards even more worth considering. A newcomer's article style and tone aside, this returns to my original observation: The BEFFTA (Black Entertainment, Film, Fashion, Television and Arts) Awards [4][5] and AMA (African Music Awards) [6] seem worth discussion in respects to WP:ANYBIO.
