Hiplife[edit]

Delete. No potential to become encyclopedic --Randolph 18:43, 11 Apr 2005 (UTC)
Wait and see - who are we to say that this is not a notable topic capable of development? It may be significant in Ghana, which is the claim of the stub, so let someone who knows about Ghana say something about it first. -- 8^D ^gab 19:00, 2005 Apr 11 (UTC)
Neutral. Agree with the above poster that I'd like to know how significant this is in Ghana before voting to delete. Firebug 21:45, 11 Apr 2005 (UTC)
Keep. "South Africa's Channel O has recently added an entire hip-life show to its programming" [1] Please check "What links here" and google a little before Vfding things, this was a requested article. Kappa 23:38, 11 Apr 2005 (UTC)
Delete, notability not established, promo. Megan1967 10:32, 12 Apr 2005 (UTC)
Strong keep. Major Ghanaian music style. Notability is easily established by searching "Reggie Rockstone". - Mustafaa 06:56, 13 Apr 2005 (UTC)
Strong keep. Notable Ghanaian music style. Certainly has the potential to become encyclopedic. Often spelled 'Hip Life', other major artist Tic Tac. The BBC has devoted an article to it a year ago at their African music scene pages [2]. — mark ✎ 07:30, 13 Apr 2005 (UTC)
