- Comment: they charted two songs on the Billboard Hot R&B/Hip Hop Songs chart [1], and on the R&B/Hip Hop Airplay and the Adult R&B charts as well, although I'm not sure if the latter two charts are subcomponents of the first one. It's not much, but they do have a charting history at least. Richard3120 ( talk) 23:02, 24 October 2018 (UTC)
- Charted songs are great but GNG or atleast BASIC still needs to be met, At present there's not one source in the article so theoretically they should actually be deleted under BLPPROD. – Davey2010 Talk 00:21, 25 October 2018 (UTC)
- I agree – I've added the source for the chart history, but it's still difficult to justify this article if there isn't a single source for any of the prose in it. Richard3120 ( talk) 13:27, 25 October 2018 (UTC)

- Comment. I'm really on the fence with this one. The chart hits and minor placings on relatively minor charts, they had no hits on the Billboard Hot 100. They released one album on major label RCA, so there is likely some coverage around, but being from 1993, coverage of the album is likely to be in print sources. There is a very brief bio at Allmusic ( [2]), and a more substantial article from The Crisis ( [3]) - finding anything else may require a trawl through offline sources. -- Michig ( talk) 07:49, 9 November 2018 (UTC)

- Delete It coudn’t be more clear that they are not notable enough for an article. Billboard is not notability unless they chart at a substantial number (such as top 10) or break a record. Many non-notable artists / groups have charted on Billboard. Trillfendi ( talk) 21:54, 9 November 2018 (UTC)
