Keep. It is listed at WP:ALBUM/SOURCE as a reliable source. The prior deletion should have no bearing as there several new citations since then, which seem reliable and in-depth such as [1], [2] and [3]. They are also on BET nominated platform for one of the best HipHop sites.Chelokabob (talk) 00:05, 20 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - Notable and a few independent reliable sources exist such as what the above editor Chelokabob provided. VincentGod11 (talk) 12:34, 21 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Strong keep First of all, as a hip hop enthusiast, I'm really surprised by this nomination. This site has been mentioned literally hundreds of times on Wikipedia. This is no doubt a pretty well-known site in the world of hip hop. I would strongly suggest people who know more about hip hop take a closer look at this. It's an unfortunate fact that hip hop articles on Wikipedia tend to be frequently nominated for deletion by people who don't really know that much about this genre.

Plus it's been mentioned on CNN, ABC, BET and many other top sources too.
