But, didn't SNOW die or get shot or something? The D Man

Nope.

[edit] Birthdate

Does anybody have a reference to confirm his birthdate? The body text says 1968, but he's filed in Category:1971 births. Bearcat 11:12, 11 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] No mention of "Informer"

The article does not at present mention (not even indirectly) the song "Informer" -- Snow's major, if not his only, hit and claim to fame -- there are external links related to it, but nothing in the main text. Can someone please add something? Thanks... --Cotoco 10:45, 11 February 2006 (UTC)

Thanks to user 66.36.149.132 for fixing this; apparently the song was previously mentioned, but someone changed the title to "Bulger". 66.36.149.132 reverted it to "Informer". --Cotoco 17:35, 16 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Un(w)rapping a myth

I've had to revert entirely too many people who added Category:White rappers to this article, so I'm going to clarify this again: Snow is not a rapper, he's a reggae singer. I know "Informer" was done in a kind of speak-singing style that some people parsed as rap, but it wasn't rap; that's a normal reggae style. It's no more correct to classify Snow as a rapper than it would be to classify Buju Banton, Shaggy or Beenie Man that way. Bearcat 18:24, 26 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Imprisoned?

Anyone have any idea what for? --BradBeattie 04:11, 6 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Awards

The first sentence says hes an award winning musician, however i dont think he has won any major awards. --User:Blackjays 08:50, 29 November 2006 (UTC)
