While I might be wikilawyering when I see this, there is an assertion of notability to this article. A single for an untitled debut album that features a known rapper and was released doesn't seem to pass the standard at WP:MUSIC. Ricky81682 (talk) 04:43, 4 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete Billboard does show it on a chart.[1]. It's the "bubbling up" chart, though; I can't find it on the Billboard 200. It doesn't seem to have had any press. Trick Daddy is notable, but this single probably isn't; looks like it came out in early 2008 and sank without a trace. Amusingly, the song seems to be available either as a 12" vinyl single or as a free MP3 download, but not as a CD. Unless we get verification of a Billboard 200 position, I'd suggest just giving it a mention in the Trick Daddy article, as is usual for dud works by notable artists. --John Nagle (talk) 05:51, 4 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete per nom. I'd be more inclined to keep it if the group itself had an article (according to hiphopdx.com, they were just signed in May 2008 so that may be a ways off) or if the song were a hit. I also agree with John Nagle's suggestion of mentioning it in the Trick Daddy article. Pinkadelica (talk) 10:36, 4 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
