[edit] Backpacker (hip hop)

Backpacker (hip hop) (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs)

Unreferenced silly neologism found in the speedy backlog. Deleted once via prod and partially reposted. Opabinia regalis 07:01, 18 November 2006 (UTC)

  • Delete. I'd heard it before and wondered what it meant, but this looks like a job for Urbandictionary or another crowd like that. BigHaz - Schreit mich an 08:11, 18 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete per above. MER-C 08:28, 18 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete as neologism. SkierRMH 08:37, 18 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete. I was the original prodder (the OP, yo) and placed the db-repost this time. -- Mikeblas 15:34, 18 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Comment so you know, recreating an article deleted by prod counts as contesting the deletion, so technically not eligible for db-repost. Opabinia regalis 01:40, 19 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete not an article worth keeping and as stated above, obvious neologism.¤~Persian Poet Gal (talk) 20:11, 18 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete completely ridiculous non-notable term. ReverendG 04:41, 19 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Comment This entry is terrible, but this is not a non-notable term. It's used often regarding rappers like Kanye West, Jurassic 5, and Mos Def, as well as their fans. Here's an article from the Seattle times that uses it [1], a Jurassic 5 interview that uses the term [2], an album review of 9th wonder [3], and a PopMatters music review with the term [4]. Just a sampling...this is a term with widespread usage. Keep and Cleanup Chubbles1212 04:52, 20 November 2006 (UTC)
