Weak keep. Performed as part of BBC's Electric Proms, some coverage already in the article, and more out there. e.g. this.--Michig (talk) 07:08, 1 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Weak keep. The article would have to be rewritten in some way as parts of it sound just like coming directly out of a press kit. Sort of meets WP:N, but only just. _noisy jinx ^huh? 02:19, 14 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - he has not released an album, although he is working on one. Only a significant review from an established secondary source would save this article. Racepacket (talk) 19:07, 14 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Keep, simply because the nominator did not make their case. -- œ^™ 21:07, 14 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Actually I think you didn't make your case according to WP:JNN, which is nothing to do with the nominator reason for deletion, but is everything to do with the follow up contributors' votes. Rapido (talk) 16:53, 15 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Hes famous! difficulties in obtaining sources probably due to "ghetto" being an ambiguous search term. more information on the artist available on his myspace http://www.myspace.com/ghettomc and via the BBC http://www.bbc.co.uk/music/introducing/artists/ghetto/ his releases "top 3 selected" and "sing for me" made regular appearances on radio and TV and his forthcoming album release likely to significantly increase his profile. Recently shortened his stage name of "ghetto" to "Ghetts" so the article could possibly be retitled accordingly —Preceding unsigned comment added by D4v3tr0 (talk • contribs) 14:18, 15 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Keep but perhaps a name change, if he is going by Ghetts now then it would be helpful to rename the page accordingly. Volbeatfan (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 17:55, 20 February 2010 (UTC).[reply]
