Non-notable rapper. The article subject was not notable before he was arrested for murder, and he is not notable for the murder under PERP or BLP1E. voorts ( talk/ contributions) 23:25, 27 January 2024 (UTC)

- Merge to Lil Durk. Cannot find any sources which don't fall under WP:NEWSPRIMARY, but he has some sustained coverage with regards to his imprisonment [1] and appears on a few "best songs" lists [2] [3]. Mach61 ( talk) 01:41, 28 January 2024 (UTC)
- Think about the ramifications of this merge recommendation. This guy's biography would be sitting in the middle of a different guy's biography, which makes no sense for two different people, or even for two different performers who have a connection. it would be like cramming Stevie Wonder's life story into one paragraph of Paul McCartney's life story just because they
once collaborated on a song. ---

- Delete - His rap career is non-notable except for his associations with other people, and if he is relevant for someone else's song or some other association, such as Lil Durk, he can be mentioned briefly at their articles. His own music is only visible in the usual promotional and self-upload sites and received no significant media coverage when he was only a local rapper. His murder conviction got news coverage as seen in the sources already used, but per WP:CRIME he is not a well-known criminal and his crime was not unusual. Thus, he was a non-notable rapper and now he's a non-notable murderer too. --- DOOMSDAYER520 ( TALK| CONTRIBS) 16:37, 28 January 2024 (UTC)
