Talk:Yo Gotti

Edited out a biased statement

I removed "But not matter what he tries he will still never be better than Three 6 Mafia. After all where's his oscar?" —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.53.210.40 (talk • contribs) 23:33, September 7, 2006

I think it's ok to take the NPOV tag off now? It looks sparse but neutral to me... Lisamh 02:17, 14 September 2006 (UTC) THIS IS DYLAN VAIL STR8 OUT THE MO TOWN TENNESSEE YO GOTTI IS THE BEST —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.38.56.183 (talk) 04:21, 19 August 2008 (UTC)

The fact Yo Gotti named himself after a black hating bigot is very relevent

The fact Yo Gotti named himself after a black hating bigot is very relevant. He named himself after John Gotti. John Gotti is on video saying "Being a nigger is an embarrassment"

This goes to the core of Yo Gotti's name and his namesake John Gotti. Rapper and Racist - Linked forever - all by the Rapper's choice. He could change his stage name anytime.

Name

Yo Gotti (born Mario Mims) was previously known as Lil Yo. (per WP:FACTS) (see Frayser Click) Ben0kto (talk) 14:35, 26 October 2013 (UTC)

Obviously that AllMusic link is related to a different person. I have heard of this before, but it needs a much better ref. STATic message me! 17:21, 26 October 2013 (UTC)

It is not. Yo Gotti is a Memphis born rap artist from the Ridgecrest area. Ben0kto (talk) 17:54, 26 October 2013 (UTC)

That source also does not contain "Lil Yo" or "Lil' Yo" anywhere in it. From Da Dope Game 2 Da Rap Game was released in 2000 under the name Yo Gotti, the only stuff linked in that AllMusic source is from 2007, so again you're making no sense. STATic message me! 18:14, 26 October 2013 (UTC)

There. This time, I placed that one next to Ridgecrest, since the album title (even though it's misspelled) is Ridgecrest Killaz, a 2007 re-release of Yo's early work copyrighted by DJ Sound and released on Lite Green Records.

• Side note: I hope this subject makes sense, because there are lots of sources returned on a google search. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ben0kto (talk • contribs) 18:27, 26 October 2013 (UTC)

• First, here is one from Complex, most notable; where Lil Yo is mentioned.

• Another article I found was from Nappy Afro, the link was whitelisted but it was mentioned somewhere.

• There are still more to be found. Ben0kto (talk) 18:41, 26 October 2013 (UTC)

• Note about magazines and/or reviews: These are noteworthy musical information sources.

Hip Hop DX

• If all of this is still not enough to convince you that Yo Gotti grew up in the Ridgecrest apartments of the Frayser neighborhood of Memphis, Tennessee and/or made music albums with DJ Sound as Lil Yo from the exact same apartments and neighborhood, here's a Hip Hop DX link I just found.
