I think this article doesn't meet WP:BLP. The article makes claims of notability by saying that the artist has been mentioned in "a host of reviews including Hip Hop Connection and Big Smoke Magazine", but I can't find any actual articles to corroborate either claim. All the other references given on the page fail WP:RS in some way - a lot are blogs, some are links to Amazon products, some Youtube videos of songs he's made, and I see a handful of self-published data about albums. There's one link to a RollingStone article, but the article doesn't exist anymore, and I can't find a version of it anywhere. On top of all that, the article is being used for promotional purposes by Rustyjay (talk · contribs), who I'm pretty sure is the subject of the article given this version of his talk page which points to the subject's MySpace. So overall, I'd say that notability is really sketchy, and the page is largely promotional. — HelloAnnyong (say whaaat?!) 14:23, 26 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Comment I was going to suggest those three too, but didn't want to seem to have some sort of vendetta. I completely agree with your comment, though I think that this is only one of a sizeable number of UK music stubs concerning genres such as hip-hop and drum n bass that, whilst they are of significance to fans of those genres (of which I am one), they simply don't even meet WP:GNG.
