Fails WP:BASIC, WP:ANYBIO, WP:MUSICBIO, and WP:PERP. Ephemeral press coverage for his criminal acts; little notability as a musician. Magnolia677 (talk) 13:47, 31 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

• Weak Keep. This has received what appears to be both WP:LASTING and WP:SIGCOV. The subject appears to have been the gang leader of the Bloods in New-York. He was convicted of multiple crimes (so not a BLP1E - in addition we have coverage of the rap angle and post conviction coverage) and we have continuing coverage of convictions of his henchmen. The legal case itself was somewhat novel in that his own Youtube rap videos were used as evidence against in the trial - which has led to coverage in the BBC for instance [1] and elsehwere [2], [3].Icewhiz (talk) 15:22, 31 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep, per Icewiz above, however the article should focus more on the notability of the criminal acts with less on the YouTube, though both are needed as they tie together the notability. Gatemansgc (talk) 23:38, 31 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
