No references given. KRS-One's official website and Myspace page make no mention of the album or that the artist has ever collaborated with KRS-One.

Author has continually attempted to create articles for artists who claim to collaborate with KRS-One but are no reliable references are every given or produced when asked. OlYeller^Talktome 21:33, 17 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I originally thought that this was an artists with one album as opposed to an album by an already existing artist who is notable. I would withdraw the nomination but I can't find that the album has actually been released (a reason to delete the article) or that KRS-One has anything to do with it (not a reason to delete the article).

Answer You just go at http://www.krsoneinc.com/ that the official site. And check this links: http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=KRS-One+%26+Showbiz+godsville&btnG=%E1%83%AB%E1%83%98%E1%83%94%E1%83%91%E1%83%90#sclient=psy&hl=en&source=hp&q=KRS-One+%26+Showbiz+godsville++february+15&aq=f&aqi=&aql=&oq=&pbx=1&bav=on.1,or.&fp=681127d0c6f645aa — Preceding unsigned comment added by MC Head (talk • contribs)

The Google search looks like it returns a large number of torrent hits which I'm sure you're not claiming as reliable sources. I'm not sold that any of the other sources are reliable but you're certainly entitled to your opinion. OlYeller^Talktome 16:21, 18 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - An album from notable artists. This article certainly confirms the facts. -- Whpq (talk) 14:25, 18 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

It confirms the claims in the article but I'm not sure that the source is reliable. Anyone have any experience with the source? The artist is certainly notable but like I said, I find it odd that it's so hard to find sources to verify that the album exists or has anything to do with KRS-One.

Per http://www.hiphopdx.com/index/contactus/, the publisher of the article states, "If you're a Publicist, Manager or Label Representative and you'd like to request that we cover your artist on HipHopDX, you can reach us at media@hiphopdx.com." Because the source is not selective, I do not consider it to be a reliable source that establishes notability. Cunard (talk) 07:28, 23 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

Keep - The album clearly exists [1][2] and appears to feature notable artists. —SW— ^verbalize 23:10, 24 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - This is KRS-One's official website and it clearly states that they are releasing this album sometime this year [3] Littlebigboiz (talk) 12:32, 28 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
