Non-notable? You clearly know nothing about hip hop. This artist is associated with
Kanye West. It's time for this unfair bias against hip hop artists to stop. I can't understand why Wikipedia censors hip hop topics so much.

Speedy keep First of all, read the article. The nominator has a history of targeting notable hip hop artists. Hex Hectic has worked with
Rhymefest and
DLow and graduated from a selective program closely associated with
Kanye West's mother. Do you even know who
Kanye West is? No hip hop enthusiast would want to delete articles like this.

WP:NOTINHERITED: Having some relationship with a notable subject doesn't cause another notable subject. The very first example of what doesn't make someone notable by themselves is "once worked with someone famous". An even better example of stretching it would be "graduated from a selective program closely associated with Kanye West's mother. Do you even know who Kanye West is?" --

MaghrebiFalafel, before you start judging other editors and Wikipedia at large, why don't you familiarize yourself with the guidelines first? You've been here less than a month and you got a total of 41 edits to your name. This is not helping your case.

I spent countless hours reading the guidelines and hitting the preview button who knows how many times. The coding was hard to master and I spent hours looking at different examples of hip hop artists trying to make this work. Please don't make assumptions.

Right, because "You clearly know nothing about hip hop" is not an assumption? If you did read the guidelines, maybe go over them again, because you are very
WP:UNCIVIL towards others, in other deletion discussions as well.

WP:RS by itself isn't the standard for notability; it's
