I am sorry to inform that this article is receiving a quick-fail do to overwhelming issues, some so simple and obvious.

  • The article is very biased, mainly focusing on its success and sales, rather than going into detail over the actual album itself.
  • The lead is meant to cover all important aspects of the article, and summarize them in the lead, this lead discuss only sales and similar things, and a few lines of its writing. For a GA article on one of the biggest albums of the year, we would need a very NPOV-free lead, with important information on the article, not just sales.
  • Other basic mistake, obviously for the album's praise. The album was not certified double-platinum in Europe, yet its listed as that. I will change that myself now, as its contradictory to the source.
  • There is inconsistency in the chart section. Some are linked fully, while others only "album chart". Very inconsistent.
  • Many MOS issues, we do not use an x for certifications, please look up the correct symbol.
  • Several un-formatted refs. 38, 58, 59, 80, 122, 123
  • Source says 5.5 for the album, not 5.7. Basic mistake. Also, what makes Hip-Hop-Issues reliable?
I'm sorry, but this in no way meets GA criteria. This is a Fail.--CallMeNathanTalk2Me 00:17, 15 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
