Non-notable record label which fails WP:ORGCRIT, WP:GNG or any applicable SNG. Could not find sources to establish, at the very least, GNG. Vanderwaalforces (talk) 12:20, 28 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Comment The label doesn't meet WP:MUSIC's sense of an important indie label, but the article does have several sources from potentially reliable Nigerian outlets, which suggests a possible GNG pass. A source analysis might be valuable here. Chubbles (talk) 16:21, 29 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I will gladly provide a source analysis, I have the plan already. Vanderwaalforces (talk) 17:26, 29 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It certainly was not that. Chubbles (talk) 03:37, 31 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: Inherent notability. Promotional clauses and unlike a notable label; few songs and artists to credit and neither have been seen on "Top stories" (of release or SIGCOV). All the Best! Otuọcha (talk) 16:39, 30 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for this assessment. @Vanderwaalforces. All the Best! Otuọcha (talk) 16:40, 30 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Keep The label has released two notable projects and would still need better sourcing, aside entering a joint partnership with EMPIRE.--Afí-afeti (talk) 06:06, 4 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
