[edit] Atheist Hip Hop

Atheist Hip Hop (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

Non notable. No evidence this form of hip hop is different from normal hip hop. No reliable sources. Michael Johnson 10:10, 13 March 2007 (UTC)

• Keep The term is used in a major news happening: "...'Atheist' hip-hop track causes a religious stir..." and is notable in many blogs using the term as a new form of genre. --CrimsonSun99 13:18, 14 March 2007 (UTC) Note: CrimsonSun99 (talk · contribs) is the article's creator and primary editor.

Keep "Non notable. No evidence this form of hip hop is different from normal hip hop. No reliable sources." maybe not notable to you, but many have heard the term. I don't hear normal hip hop talking about anti-religion, unless you know of some? No reliable sources? If I was less half-assed I would find some.

"seems to be a vehicle for promotional links" It is only for people to understand what it is, I only provided links and names for people interested in those people. I am in now way affiliated with them other than knowing of them.

"Lol, who the heck made this up?" Multiple artists when there was no genre for what they were producing.

"just because music can be described using a certain adjective does not make it a genre." But it does when it can't be described by a adjective, it is similar to christian rap, but not christian.

"lacks sources and barely asserts notability." I'm just placing the starting off as a stub for people of knowledge of it to give their 2 cent.

"Delete or maaaaaaybe merge into hip hop" I bet you 1000$ that hip hop would be vandalized more due to the large ammounts of african americans that pretty much hate Atheists.

"seems like part of a promo vehicle for Greydon Square" Not at all, I just wanted to give him a wiki since I know him. I would have made wikis for others if I knew them more.

• • "I bet you 1000$ that hip hop would be vandalized more due to the large ammounts of african americans that pretty much hate Atheists." This is getting pretty rediculous and bordering on personal attack. For more of the same from CrimsonSun99 see Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Greydon Square where he makes the claim that "if you are christian i don't think you have the unbiasedness to even speak on deleting it" and other such unsubstantiated and divisive allegations.
