• It's not clear from the nomination statement what sort of research was done to determine this musician's notability. A quick search turns up multiple sources: [http://www.jamaicaobserver.com/lifestyle/html/20070712T220000-0500_125226_OBS_JUNIOR_PINCHERS_HITS_AT_CHEATERS.asp] [http://www.jamaicaobserver.com/lifestyle/html/20070419T220000-0500_121968_OBS_CATCH_DI_RIDDIM.asp] [http://www.jamaica-star.com/thestar/20061122/ent/ent3.html] [http://www.jamaica-gleaner.com/gleaner/20070902/ent/ent2.html] for example.

• Keep Some of the articles above are directly about him, so he passes WP:N and WP:BIO. I see no other issues with the article as it stands. ThemFromSpace 02:04, 30 July 2009 (UTC)
• Speedy keep. The nomination is incomprehensible, so there is no basis for a reasoned discussion. Phil Bridger (talk) 01:12, 2 August 2009 (UTC)
