message: What's his birth name?  Where was he born?  -- Zoe
what about his 1999 album "the art of story telling"?
How did he lose his eye?
He's listed as an African American musician. But he's British-born. Anyone have a comment on this? --130.245.212.202 16:09, 2 September 2005 (UTC)

message: On the biography section, you have "Walters makes a guest appearance in Y.O.U on Asher Roth's Asleep in the Bread Isle" why the hell is this there? Rick is a legend, and you have this up to define him ... are you trying to make him look bad??? You'll mention this, but you'll leave out endless accomplishments that he's achieved throughout his career. I've tried to professionally add in more facts about him (with references) and every time I do they instantly get removed ... who ever runs this page should really let others contribute - you're doing a half-assed job at this, and the poor quality of this page proves it.   —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.17.200.34 (talk) 03:19, 12 September 2009 (UTC)

message: why does this describe the guy as English if he moved to the US when he was ten? I'm sticking a contradiction tag on this page, not to mention an unverified one. I'm guessing his parents weren't originally English either, so the guy's probably got about three nationalities and the article should reflect this. mgekelly 04:34, 29 May 2006 (UTC)

message: Seems kind of ridiculous that a biography of Slick Rick would include zero mentions of Doug E. Fresh.  This article mentions "La-Di-Da-Di" more than once as if it were a Slick Rick single when in fact it was a Doug E. Fresh and the Get Fresh Crew release.  What's the deal?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Boris Tripod (talk • contribs) 19:11, 23 March 2008 (UTC)

message: Significant additions were made to the article on April 8 by User:Newtwelve. Despite some additions adding a good amount of detail to musical work, etc, many of the sources used were unfortunately unreliable. Some of the text likely did not meet NPOV and style guidelines. The edits were reverted by me and User:Davey2010. After a discussion, the user stopped editing. However, on April 13, the reversions were undid by User:Mclopezpr without an explanation. I've since done a bit of copyediting and revisions diffing to make a version that stands now. Here is a "final" revision I refer to that consolidates the additions. Another reversion is likely ungrounded and again violates NPOV and style guidelines.
Just an FYI to anyone who may be watching this page or chances on the diffs these past few days. Thanks. — Andy W. (talk · contrib) 17:39, 13 April 2016 (UTC)
