Article has been speedily deleted three times in three months for non-notability and advertising, but keeps being re-created. Taking it here to get the title salted. Dori ☾Talk ☯ Contribs☽ 21:52, 31 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. I don't see any aspect of WP:MUSIC that is met by this individual. I note also that there are three other articles concerning his efforts that probably should be tied into this AfD: Young, Broke, and Infamous, Young Sinatra, Young Sinatra: Undeniable. There don't seem to be any reliable sources provided or available for any of these sources and there is a highly promotional tone. Ubelowme _U ^Me 22:09, 31 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I figured it was simpler to just nom this one for deletion by itself. If the consensus is delete, it's easy enough to CSD (as {{db-a9}}) the others. Dori ☾Talk ☯ Contribs☽ 23:23, 31 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. It doesn't seem like any of this artists' music material has charted. Bleubeatle (talk) 03:59, 4 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not a wikipedian, im not sure of the debate procedure but I wanted to add my two cents. Just searched for this wiki and google auto completed "logic rapper wiki". Not a big fan of this guy, but he is certainly deserving of a page. Glad this page exists on Wikipedia. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.227.137.70 (talk) 05:01, 5 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. There is a great deal of Logic in what you're saying. Ubelowme _U ^Me 12:50, 5 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Keep The XXL and AllHipHop sources = significant multiple independent coverage, without even looking outside the article as is. 86.44.50.55 (talk) 03:37, 6 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. There's a "Show & Prove" write-up in XXL magazine and the AllHipHop interview - both sourced in the article - and these pieces at HipHopDX and Washington City Paper. On the whole, not an overwhelming amount of coverage in reliable sources, but enough in my view to meet WP:MUSICBIO #1 and WP:GNG. Gongshow ^Talk 05:20, 6 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. It meets the multiple publishing requirement, but this article needs to be edited for promotional tone. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.116.98.221 (talk) 16:56, 6 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
