Deletion of Beam me up Scotty

Comment: This is a weird AfD, because I'm certain most people thought they were coming here for something about Star Trek, not hip-hop. First off I would agree that, if kept, this should be moved to Beam me up Scotty (mixtape) and this should be a redirect to the famous phrase. I'm a major hip-hop head in addition to being a trekkie so let me weigh in here. First of all there's a problem with our |guideline on albums, I would argue, in that by giving less weight to mixtapes it fails to recognize that they can often be quite important in hip-hop, at times more so than albums. I'd not heard of Minaj before, but she is a protege of the person who is undoubtedly, for better or for worse, the biggest rap star alive right now, Lil Wayne, and this was released on his quite notable Young Money Entertainment label. It includes guest appearances by extremely well-know people such as Lil Wayne, Busta Rhymes, Gucci Mane and Ron Browz. In addition to the couple of sources in the article, this mixtape has been mentioned (albeit briefly) by http://www.thesource.com/2009/04/nicki-minajs-mixtape-beam-me-up-scotty-speeds-through-the-blogosphere/ The Source and, unbelievably, the notoriously unhip http://themoment.blogs.nytimes.com/2009/06/04/the-new-queen-bee-meet-nicki-minaj/ New York Times (in a blog entry). There are a http://blogsearch.google.com/blogsearch?q=%22Beam%20me%20up%20Scotty%22%20%22nicki%20minaj%22&hl=en&ie=UTF-8&rlz=1B2GGGL_enUS205US205&tab=nb a ton of blog hits when one does an exact search on the album title and the artist's name, including full reviews like http://hhlo.net/downloads/feature-mixtape-dj-holiday-nicki-minaj-beam-me-up-scotty/ this. I understand the prejudice against blogs as sources, but we're really going to have to start getting over that, especially for pop culture items. So what I see here is an album (in hip-hop a mixtape often just means you rap over already-used beats and the production values are not nearly as good - for some artists, including Lil Wayne, their mixtapes are as eagerly awaited and well received as their studio albums) by a clearly notable up and coming artist, released on the label of the biggest star in the rap industry, and with some reasonable coverage in the blogosphere. I think that makes it notable enough to warrant an article, and I would hope the closing admin would consider relisting this since I'm bringing some new info to the table here toward the very end of the AfD period. I would also note that the many of the delete and redirect !votes above provide no rationale, and a couple are either admittedly snarky about mixtapes in general or confused about what they are
