Pop Champagne

edit

I know people are having a hard time understanding this concept but I'll try to explain it more clearly. "Pop Champagne" was a solo single before it was a collaboration with Jim Jones and Juelz Santana. It was a Ron Browz produced song with 3 verses by Ron Browz. It reached #2 on the Hip-Hop Bubbling Under Chart, or #102 on the Hip-Hop Chart. If you still don't believe me, go find your ipod and listen to your version of Pop Champagne by Jim Jones & Ron Browz featuring Juelz Santana because I guarantee it's the only version you've ever heard, and listen to what Jim Jones says at the end of his verse "This was in the car while I was stopping at the light" Referring to Pop Champagne the solo single. He heard it when it was a solo single and then made the collaboration version. I don't know how to explain it any better so please just read this.--Nyj1218 (talk) 19:01, 29 January 2009 (UTC)Reply

@Nyj1218   Done. It's 15 years later lol, but I added in the fact that it's a remix. HappyWith (talk) 14:19, 13 February 2024 (UTC)Reply

"mostly inactive since"

This phrase I put into the article isn’t quite accurate so I just decided to leave this note here to explain why - even though he has frequently released mixtapes since 2010, sources basically do not cover them at all and has not troubled the charts since the mid-2010s, so I've tried to cover this period best I can using the sources I found that briefly mention it. Other more comprehensive sources would help but I think this is the least bad option for now. HappyWith (talk) 18:11, 3 February 2024 (UTC)Reply

@Pillow da Don Seems like we're close to getting into an edit war, so I wanna start a discussion to de-escalate. My main problem with the changes to the lead are that there aren't sources in the lead or the body of the article that substantiate the claims about the chart history of the mentioned singles. I'm aware that these claims are true, but for the sake of reader verifiability, we should put in explicit sources for the claims somewhere in the article before we add statements like those to such a prominent position in the article.

I don't necessarily object to including any info about Etherlibrium in the lead, but it was a really obscure release (I'm not even sure that it merits its own article, NGL) so I think it should be put in context of it being a minor episode in his history if it's in the lead at all.

Also I've belatedly realized that per the "BRD" guidelines, I probably should have started this discussion before reverting the lead changes again but late is better than never, apologies if I disrupted your editing. HappyWith (talk) 14:45, 7 March 2024 (UTC)Reply

No worries; I realized the issue was in fact with the sources provided; I will make one further edit correcting them.
Typically debut albums, even for independent artists, get mentioned in the lead if there's something noteworthy about them―in this case, it may be the critical reception.
I try not to step on anyone's toes while editing, but the main goal is effectively presenting the most accurate information cohesively and providing optimal readability. Most articles for musicians have guest features in parentheses, so this article will follow suit. Pillow da Don (talk) 19:54, 7 March 2024 (UTC)Reply
