[edit] Tone

Is all wrong. I'm changing it. "The famous," "the Big Apple," etc. do not belong on Wikipedia. They are colloquialisms. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.57.101.3 (talk) 05:13, 9 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] This article is crap.

And probably written by himself, friends, or someone he hired. Why is this even on Wikipedia? Wikipedia should not be a tabloid for the assistants of passe rappers. I changed the tone, which made me want to vomit. Now, I will look to submit this article for deletion. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.57.101.3 (talk) 05:21, 9 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Tone

I heavily, heavily, changed the tone of this article but still question its purpose on Wikipedia. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.57.101.3 (talk) 07:53, 9 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Improvement in tone is laudable, but deletion is not appropriate

The unsigned comments above express appropriate sentiment regarding the tone of the article, but deletion is unwarranted. Bentley, thought previously a personal assistant for Diddy, is now a significant hip hop artist in his own right, with a new album under the G.O.O.D. label, a featured spot with the track C.O.L.O.U.R.S. in Kanye West's recent "Can't Tell Me Nothing" mixtape, and prominence in major news outlets, including the New York Times: http://www.nytimes.com/2004/03/21/fashion/21UMBR.html?ex=1395205200&en=8f66fde94fc83b72&ei=5007&partner=USERLAND. The posts above seem to take issue with the quality of Bentley's work, but the fact that Bentley is a prominent figure is sufficient to warrant a Wikipedia page, and the above poster's personal musical preferences are not relevant.Anuraagc (talk) 08:42, 9 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] I'm sick of THIS kind of crap.

I'm sick of seeing idiots who don't even have the courage to sign their offensive POV comments use Wikipedia as their own personal soapbox and being made to think that they can do anythign they want on here. I move that any unsigned user SHOULD NOT be able to make changes to articles---period. I'm going to bring this up to the appropriate authorities here on Wikipedia.
