Prose
Lead
  • In the infobox, list the duration as "1:01:37" rather than "61:37" for simplicity sake
  • In the infobox, remove the "exec." and "also exec." bits under "producer" section
  • It just seemed like clutter at first glance when others didn't have them (and I personally haven't seen it used much), but if other GA's have them then it's not a big issue. I would at least remove the "also" bits.
  • If it is known when fourth single "Talkin' Bout" was released, include the specific date in infobox
  • Never really seemed to be a solid date, in the first week of February it was announced that the following week it would impact radio, from there it begun appearing on the Nielson BDS Radio tracker charts, so it is not like the release was scrapped.

  • In that case, leave it as simply "February 2014" for now, though do add specific date if it becomes known.
  • The first sentence in the third paragraph goes into too much detail that should just be in the section on what critics said. This sentence should just read as something like "Stay Trippy received generally positive reviews from critics upon release".
  • The first sentence in the fourth paragraph is rather lengthy. Try something like "The album was preceded by singles 'Bandz a Make Her Dance', 'Show Out', and 'Bounce It'. 'Talkin' Bout' was later released as the album's fourth single."
  • The last sentence in the fourth paragraph would read better as "'Talkin' Bout' followed as the album's fourth single."
Background and recording
  • If such details are known, be specific on who the interviews mentioned were with (both paragraphs).
  • The two interviews mentioned are done by minor websites that do not have articles, especially the first, so I believe they are not worth mentioning. If it was with major magazines or newspapers of course they would be, but that is not the case. STATic message me! 03:30, 3 April 2014 (UTC)Reply
  • In that case, just say for example "On March 7, 2012, Juicy J announced....." and "In late November 2012, Juicy J announced....."
Production
  • The first sentence to the first paragraph is overly lengthy. Try something like "Juicy J worked with various artists on the album including Wiz Khalifa, The Weeknd, Lil Wayne, 2 Chainz, Nicki Minaj, Yelawolf, Chris Brown, Project Pat, Maejor Ali, Young Jeezy, and Big Sean."
  • Since the album has already been released, the second sentence of the first paragraph should read something like "The album features production from frequent collaborators Lex Luger, Sonny Digital, Mike WiLL Made It, Dr. Luke, Illangelo, Crazy Mike, Juicy J himself, as well as from some Indie pop bands."
  • The third sentence in the first paragraph is better off merged into the first sentence, so include Trey Songz in that along with Wiz Khalifa, The Weeknd, Lil Wayne, 2 Chainz, Nicki Minaj, Yelawolf, Chris Brown, Project Pat, Maejor Ali, Young Jeezy, and Big Sean.
  • The fourth sentence in the first paragraph is also better off merged, but this bit on Hit-Boy should be merged into the second sentence.
  • The sixth sentence of the first paragraph
  • The year the "April 18" bit refers to should be included in the first sentence of the second paragraph.
  • Yes, this section is good to go
Release and promotion
  • In the third or fourth paragraph, mention the date the album was first released.
Commercial performance
  • Per MOS:QUOTEMARKS, ′ should be ', and ″ should be ". There are several instances of these that should be corrected in the reviews Julia LeConte and David "Rek" Lee gave (all in second paragraph).
  • Yes you did   Done
Track listing
  • Duration totals for the standard edition (1:01:37) and deluxe edition should be included in the track boxes.
Sourcing
Track listing
  • There should be citations for standard edition, deluxe edition, and "sample credits"
  • Question- does ref#86 (media notes) cover standard, deluxe, and sample?
  • In that case, we're good to go!
Coverage
Commercial performance
  • If significant information is available, use that to expand this section. If not, combine these two incomplete paragraphs into one paragraph.
Neutrality
  • No problems here
Stability
  • No problems here
GA on Hold
