Lord Flea[edit]
- ... that mento artist Lord Flea helped start the calypso craze, was covered by Harry Belafonte, and wrote a song about a 'stalking monkey'?

- This may be what I'd consider my first true "review" but, barring any uneducated misses, I'll stand by it; Hillbilly has made it easy...
New enough.- Long enough.
- Policy... Neutral: yes. Sourcing: clean.
- Hook... Length: under 200. Content: extremely hooky. Sourced.
- QPQ... as noted as "Reviewed"
- Review memo: I'd say it's good to go as-is but I'll suggest: mentioning WHY he's called "Flea" (it appears in source material)? and: the first lengthy quote of Flea's, maybe you wanna indent that into its own "quote" paragraph to separate it from the block of text its tucked into? and: there's a confusing set of [brackets] down in the body i don't really understand the usage? and: any way to successfully break up the lengthy "career" section (maybe segregating the "quote" suggested above will accomplish that)?
- General kudos: this is an informative article about an interesting subject, reported nicely! Penwatchdog (talk) 06:04, 21 April 2013 (UTC)
