The result was Speedy Delete under criteria G12; direct copy of material copywritten at The New York Times website. Marasmusine (talk) 19:25, 23 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
This has been recreated many times (the protection template is still there). It is unreferenced, fails to establish notability, and its only major contributer is a user who's name is the same as the article, which points to a conflict of interest. Furthermore, the article is written in an exteremely POV style, with lines such as "He has what most rappers dream of: a devoted fan base" and other such overly fanboy material throughout. ☯Ferdia O'Brien (T)/(C) 14:29, 23 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
