No vote, procedural nom. This was twice speedy deleted, and tagged for repost again, for which it's ineligible, see WP:CSD. The article is about an independent musician, who may meet WP:MUSIC (his CD's are sold here, e.g.) and/or may be independently notable as a native-american rapper. Or he may be NN. You decide! - CrazyRussian talk/email 20:08, 14 July 2006 (UTC)
- Delete with proviso. Fails WP:BAND CDBaby & MySpace do not constitute a recording career. However, he won a "Nammi" for "Best R&B/Rap/Hip Hop Recording" so if a Nammi is worth anything, then he should stay. Apparently the Nammis are only a podcast, if that helps. --Richhoncho 20:23, 14 July 2006 (UTC)
- IMO, Nammy is worth quite little. What's wrong with CDBaby? - CrazyRussian talk/email 20:25, 14 July 2006 (UTC)
Comment. Anybody who mails their CDs to CDBaby can put them up for sale. So anybody who wants to spend up to $1,500 to have a pressing is in business. Of course every gigging act has a pressing these days. I understand that actual sales are very low at CDBaby. --Richhoncho 21:23, 14 July 2006 (UTC)
- Weak Keep According to WP:MUSIC, "Has won a major music award, such as a Grammy, Juno or Mercury Music Award." The NAMMY is notable enough to merit a Misplaced Pages article, also has a Minnesota Tribune blurb on front page and has been covered in another article. But considering the list of people whom have won a NAMMY and it's own notability, it seems this musician is notable, and the article needs to be expanded. Yanksox 21:44, 14 July 2006 (UTC)
- Comment, my vote hinges on the whether the NAMMY is considered a "major music award." Right now I'm leaning towards delete; the notability of an awards' recipients does not necessarily make it a "major" award. Considering how little has been written in the NAMMY article in the year since it was created, I'm having a hard time seeing how it would be considered a major award. -- H·G (/works) 23:28, 14 July 2006 (UTC)
- The question relies on the defintion of defining on what makes an award a major one. Yanksox 03:40, 15 July 2006 (UTC)

*I believe He should stay as an article because he is very popular among the native american community and even though he may not be very popular outside that community there are still people who may want to know more about him.--Remember Wounded Knee!!! 04:58, 15 July 2006 (UTC)
- Comment for Remember Wounded Knee!!!, then go and work on the article, list references and make it count. At the moment it doesn't even say what award the subject has won! --Richhoncho 12:23, 15 July 2006 (UTC)
