The result was delete. Am slightly perturbed as to why User:Sukhvirlam has used the seemingly fake signature FrankUnderwood12 on their keep !vote but it doesn't change the outcome. --Malcolmxl5 (talk) 01:18, 6 April 2015 (UTC)

Delete It is based on rumors, and the single source mentions the end of 2014, not 2015. Clearly not notable and not yet real. Cullen³²⁸ Let's discuss it 03:22, 14 March 2015 (UTC)
KEEP In this Fader{{cite web|url=http://www.thefader.com/2015/01/29/chance-the-rapper-donnie-trumpet-the-social-experiment-cover-story/|title=Why Chance The Rapper Is Forgoing Solo Fame To Make Jazzy Songs With Friends|date=19 January 2015}} exclusive cover story, Chance the rapper himself acknowledges the album's expected release and quote "The rest of the crew is looking slightly worse for the wear, though, having been up until the crack of dawn putting some finishing touches on Surf." The album was expected in October 2014, however due to delays it has been pushed back. No there isn't a release date, but the direct implication of it being released in the near future is there as in this cover story Chance states that they are just now finishing the album and to expect a summer tour, which also implies the album will come out before the summer.

Reply We need coverage in reliable, independent sources to establish notability. The rapper talking about his own (possibly) upcoming album is the exact opposite of independent coverage. What else have you got, {{U|FrankUnderwood12}}. Cullen³²⁸ Let's discuss it 05:53, 21 March 2015 (UTC)
Delete - "to be released in 2015" - Well judging by that no one's updated the article because I assume no one has any idea when it gets released, All for we know it could've been cancelled .... so unless anyone can find anything that says this is getting released any time this century than I'll have to say Delete, oh and per WP:CRYSTAL....... –Davey2010^Talk 05:52, 22 March 2015 (UTC)

Delete would make more sense as section discussing change of direction by Chance the Rapper on article page until it is verified: WP:TOOSOON and WP:CRYSTAL @Rob talk 15:51, 5 April 2015 (UTC)
Delete (no redirect -- too generic a title) per the above -- WP:TOOSOON and WP:CRYSTAL. — Rhododendrites ^talk \\ 16:48, 5 April 2015 (UTC)
