Mark Curry (rapper)
- ... that Mark Curry's 2009 book contains a number of scurrilous anecdotes about his time at Sean Combs' Bad Boy Records?
- ALT1: ... that Mark Curry once released a record with David Bowie?
- Reviewed:
- Comment: QPQ forthcoming - remind me.
Created by Launchballer (talk). Self-nominated at 12:39, 7 June 2023 (UTC). Post-promotion hook changes for this nom will be logged at Template talk:Did you know nominations/Mark Curry (rapper); consider watching this nomination, if it is successful, until the hook appears on the Main Page.
Article is new and long enough, and the sourcing is just about okay, but the first hook looks too negative against a BLP, while the second isn't factually correct (Curry only sampled a Bowie recording; the hook suggests they collaborated in a studio together). Also, QPQ needs doing. Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 13:56, 14 June 2023 (UTC)
- ALT2: ... that Mark Curry's 2009 book contains a number of anecdotes about his time at Sean Combs' Bad Boy Records?
- ALT3: ... that Mark Curry once released a record that credited David Bowie?--Launchballer 20:50, 14 June 2023 (UTC)
- Ritchie333: Template:Did you know nominations/Broken Sword: The Shadow of the Templars (Game Boy Advance). I've taken out the word 'scurrilous' out and replaced 'with' with 'that credited'.--Launchballer 21:19, 14 June 2023 (UTC)
- I was thinking more like ALT4: ... that Mark Curry sampled David Bowie? That would work. Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 14:21, 15 June 2023 (UTC)
- ALT5: ... that the Mark Curry song "American Dream" sampled the David Bowie song "This Is Not America"?--Launchballer 15:39, 15 June 2023 (UTC)
Okay, ALT5 works for me. Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 15:50, 15 June 2023 (UTC)
