Subject of article lacks in-depth significant coverage in reliable sources independent of them. They do not satisfy either WP:MUSICBIO or WP:GNG. The three sources used in the article are all unreliable in this context as both this & this appear to be interviews hence aren’t independent of him thus doesn’t satisfy WP:GNG & this is user generated thus very unreliable.

- Delete a non-notable rapper. John Pack Lambert ( talk) 21:23, 13 November 2020 (UTC)
- Keep I have added more references of Independent sources to the article. Subject of the article as mentioned in the article has had his work recognised locally and internationally. His work has also been featured in The Fader Here is also a link for his MOBO Awards nomination; MOBO Kinvidia ( talk) 00:32, 14 November 2020 (UTC)
- Comment — the Fader.com source is an interview hence isn’t independent of the subject thus is of no value to WP:GNG whilst this Modern Ghana source merely name drops him amongst three other artists who were nominated for the award of which he didn’t win, WP:MUSICBIO requires the individual to have been nominated for a prominent award and MOBO awards isn’t that award & Apparently he was dropped from the nominees. Lastly please do not use pulse.com.gh as a reliable source to substantiate anything as they are not a reliable source, an example of their ineptitude is nonsense like this they publish. I have removed all pulse.com.gh sources used in the article as they clearly aren’t a serious or reliable source with reputation for fact checking. Please do not re-add them.

- Keep does have a staff written AllMusic bio already in the article and coverage in reliable sources such as Fader. I don't understand what was going on with the MOBOs but they are a big deal in the UK, imv Atlantic306 ( talk) 21:52, 18 November 2020 (UTC)

- Keep Good improvements made after listing for AfD, especially the BBC News reference. Also, as I have written many times before, I really don't agree with the nominator making numerous changes after the article has been listed - I would much prefer to let the community do its review on the article as it was at time on nomination.-- Concertmusic ( talk) 15:30, 3 December 2020 (UTC)
- Keep Mensa Ansah is a notable musician from Ghana, the name Mensa is very popular in Ghana so without doing a targetted search you will not find more about him. Owula kpakpo ( talk) 08:28, 15 December 2020 (UTC)
