The subject fails WP:MUSICBIO. The subject lacks significant independent coverage in reliable sources. The only coverage in reliable sources he has received has been a part of the group Army of the Pharaohs and notability is not inherited from the group. A redirect to the group would be proper.

- Ah man I'm not even going to argue with this. If I may, I can try adding more significant coverage on the artists solo career; e.g. more info on his releases if that will help.. or would I be wasting my time? TwinTurbo (talk) 16:38, 2 September 2014 (UTC)
- A couple of in-depth reviews in professionally editing news magazines are what the article needs. If you find them, ping my talk page and I'll reverse my !vote. Stuartyeates (talk) 07:26, 7 September 2014 (UTC)
- @TwinTurbo: That would be reviews/profiles of him or his solo albums, not articles about the group or their works. I do not see a significant notability of him as a solo artist to warrant the separate article. STATic message me! 05:18, 8 September 2014 (UTC)

- Keep status yet?: By the changes and improvements I have currently made on the page, does this make it more suitable for Wikipedia standards? TwinTurbo (talk) 12:29, 11 September 2014 (UTC)
