Despite the numerous references cited in this article, this does not appear to be a notable MC, rapper, radio announcer and screenwriter. The refs cited include brief mentions and not interviews or full-scale articles. There seems to be no substantial coverage, and google searches don't appear to be promising. This is borderline A7, because there isn't really an assertion of significance. Nominating procedurally for more input; I vote delete. — Timneu22 · talk 18:08, 20 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

DO NOT DELETE there is substantial coverage indicating j-sKy's notability, I have included several articles that I could find on the internet about him, there are others that I can include and there are also numerous third party youtube videos (that Wikipedia does not allow) of his performances, interviews and even recordings with well known artists that certify his notability. you can look at some of the following -> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M9uiQDFCbf, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LUHTfTi1aX4&feature=related, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Hy7AWL87qg. Furthermore, Jupiter Entertainment artists such as Cristian Alexanda are included on Wikipedia with little or no citations. Amongst other artists included in the referenced Hip Hop Musicians book such as Israel (singer) who are also included on Wikipedia. I vote to keep this article John Mosden 08:07, 21 July 2010 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Sikkant (talk • contribs)
after searching i've also found this link - keep - [REDACTED piracy link] OorjaNights (talk) 10:15, 21 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Strong delete fails our notability guidelines, and the creator has recently put up a paid-editing request asking for fake third party websites to add to this article to keep it from being deleted. Them From Space 12:08, 21 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Awesome! How did you find that? — Timneu22 · talk 13:38, 21 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

delete not notable. So called reference in the article do not link to sources naming the band. Google search on j-sKy [1] or Jasky Singh [2] do not readily provide secondary sources of any relevance. Arnoutf (talk) 13:06, 21 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per the above. No indication of notability. Examples from other wikipedia articles are not instructive, here - we're talking about this subject on its own merits. UltraExactZZ ^Said~ Did 13:27, 21 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
delete This looks like an autobiography to me. It appears that User:Sikkant is himself J-sKy based on the twitter handle and profile pics for sikkant and J-sKy's facebook page.DCmacnut <> 13:31, 21 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Nice research! — Timneu22 · talk 13:38, 21 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Delete, subject is not notable. Yworo (talk) 16:04, 21 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Not notable to the point that the author has requested fake sources. Mauler90 _talk 22:43, 21 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Note: I just deleted 1 reference from the article, as books published by "Books LLC" are just print-on-demand books containing only Wikipedia articles. --Kam Solusar (talk) 02:10, 23 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
