Non-notable mixtape failing WP:NALBUMS. See also the argument by In ictu oculi at Talk:Nothin Personal#Requested move 29 March 2016. GeoffreyT2000 (talk) 04:45, 16 May 2016 (UTC)
- Delete and merge any relevant (is there any) content into artist bio. Seriously how many mixtapes should be in an encyclopedia? In ictu oculi (talk) 07:10, 16 May 2016 (UTC)
- Keep. I fixed the article with mutiple secondary sources and relevant information about the mixtape. Nba-fan-11 (talk) 14:50, 22 May 2016 (UTC)
- Delete - Hmm, at best, because this is one I would've simply let pass, but since we're here and it currently still seems questionable for its own article, delete instead. SwisterTwister talk 18:54, 22 May 2016 (UTC)

- Keep as one of the leading singles, "My Side", is featured on Spotify. With physical copies of the mixtape being sold online and on tour, this shows it's notability and relevancy. Multiple secondary sources included as well. Nba-fan-11 (talk) 23:09, 28 May 2016 (UTC)

- Keep - Soooo, @In ictu oculi, GeoffreyT2000, and SwisterTwister: you guys know "mixtape" in this context does not mean "greatest hits" or "compilation", right? It's not 20 songs that all have the word "love" to tell that special someone just how you feel. A hip hop mixtape is, for all intents and purposes, an album. Usually it just means it was released for free online rather than through a record label. This got coverage from Pitchfork, MTV, Hip Hop DX, Complex, The Source, Stacks Magazine, Uproxx, Medium (author writes for Billboard)... and those were just on the first few pages of ghits. Not all of them are deep, but it's plenty to satisfy WP:NALBUM. — Rhododendrites talk \\ 04:25, 31 May 2016 (UTC)

- Keep I agree with Rhododendrites. Notability has been safely established for this topic through the sites cited above. Aoba47 (talk) 06:21, 1 June 2016 (UTC)
- Keep Nothin Personal has been treated as an album by using promotion, singles sold exclusively on Spotify, and physical copies being sold online and on tours, but the only difference being digital versions were released for free. The article contains many notable and reliable sources as Rhododendrites and Aoba47 explained. Nba-fan-11 (talk) 21:54, 1 June 2016 (UTC)
