Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/J Stalin (3rd nomination)
Satisfies |the general notability guideline and criterion 1 of  which is essentially a restatement of the GNG.  Setting aside the deadlink and sources not accessible online, we have http://cgi.sfbg.com/printable_entry.php?entry_id=402 a SF Guardian profile on the subject, a http://www.sfbg.com/2006bob/ent.php Guardian article giving an award to the subject (not a concert listing), http://www.sfbg.com/entry.php?entry_id=5007&catid=107 two http://www.sfbg.com/39/24/cover_post_2pac.html additional Guardian articles that qualify as "non-trivial" but probably not "substantial" coverage, a non-trivial http://www.youthoutlook.org/news/view_article.html?article_id=6df0ee1eeaf50d450eb215ddb4bf1a44 YO! article mention (see no reason to declare it non-reliable), and two newspaper blogs, http://www.eastbayexpress.com/blogs/mp3_of_the_day__j__stalin_s__banga_dance_/Content?oid=554332 one a profile and http://blogs.sfweekly.com/thesnitch/2007/07/oakland_hyphy_sideshows_get_a.php one a non-trivial mention, which may or may not be reliable sources depending on the amount of editorial control the newspapers exercise over their blogs (see Wikipedia:BLP#Reliable_sources).  Two or three clearly significant source mentions plus three or four more non-trivial mentions is easily enough, even without considering any other sources in or outside the article.  There's no non-local coverage requirement for people as there is for organizations, so it doesn't matter if all the article's citations are local, nor does it matter if the subject has a website or record label (so long as source coverage is available).  BTW the first AfD was closed early due to procedural issues, but Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/J Stalin (2nd nomination)|the second closed just over a week ago after a full run with a consensus that the subject's notability had been established
