Comment: the article for the second (still unreleased) album by this artist, Act II: Patents of Nobility (The Turn), is also up for deletion, and I noted in that discussion that it had been redirected four times to
Jay Electronica and reverted each time – this article has also been redirected and restored twice in its history, so someone is watching these articles and restoring them without providing a reason. Jay Electronica himself is notable with plenty of articles out there (the July 2010 issue of Spin, for example). But this is a 15-minute mixtape originally distributed via his MySpace website (and now available on Tidal) – the very fact that its release was so underground and low-key makes it hard to find reliable sources about the album itself. I'd suggest another redirect to Jay Electronica's article, but we'd have to watch out for it being reverted once again.

Delete and salt - I found a source for one claim, but there are no reviews, and most people writing about the artist don't even realize he has any stuff. Source aside, this doesn't meet
WP:NALBUM. As for other issues, the redirect reversion is a problem, and barring locking the redirect page (which I'm trying to ascertain the feasability of), I don't know how else to avoid the problem besides the one I'm offering.

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

Delete and salt I seriously do not see how this album is even remotely notable per
WP:NALBUM. I personally would have considered a redirect here, but seeing how the redirect has been constantly reverted, I am going with a delete and salt. --

Delete per the above. Lacks significant coverage to satisfy
