Saweetie birth Changes. Saweetie is from the bay — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:643:8100:26F0:106F:F922:C86D:357F (talk) 04:10, 24 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Two different dates of birth for Saweetie.

There are two different years of birth specified for Saweetie. In the article it is 1994 twice and later 1993 in the reference cited from the birth records. One of them may be a typo. Danblum (talk) 00:56, 9 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Saweetie’s real first name

Her real first name is Diamonté, not Diamanté.It has an O. Please fix the typo in the introduction of her article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2600:1700:5290:2EB0:ACDB:EBB1:7676:42DB (talk) 18:28, 24 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

New Edit Request

Hi,

I work with Saweetie and her label and would like to make the following changes but can’t because of my COI. I have sources for everything, so these should be easy.

Add to the lede
- Add "entrepreneur" after "songwriter"
  - Done
- Add "which earned an RIAA platinum certification" after “debut single "Icy Grl",”
  - Done
- Add "As of December 2019, Saweetie is managed by industry veteran, Lou Burrell."
  - Done with a rewrite
  - Source is https://www.cheatsheet.com/entertainment/here-some-of-saweeties-famous-entertainment-industry-relatives.html/
Add to 2016-2018:
- Change " It was certified platinum in September 2019." to "In September 2019, the single was certified RIAA multi-platinum and reached #1 on Billboard’s rhythmic songs airplay chart.
  - Source: https://www.billboard.com/articles/business/chart-beat/8530990/saweetie-my-type-no-1-rhythmic-songs-airplay-chart, https://www.riaa.com/gold-platinum/?tab_active=default-award&ar=Saweetie&ti=My+Type#search_section
    - Done I wasn't sure that would be a good source, but seems to be pretty standard with
- Add “In February 2018, Saweetie launched her own record label, called Icy Records.”
  - Sources: https://www.musicweek.com/tastemakers/read/on-the-radar-saweetie/072589, https://www.billboard.com/articles/columns/hip-hop/8099115/saweetie-interview-icy-grl-warner-bros-deal, https://www.complex.com/music/2018/08/rapper-saweetie-went-viral-and-is-still-winning-big
    - Done, but I think we need some source condensing - lemme try
In 2019-present:
- After the line ending "number 38," add: "By September 2020, the single reached number one on Mediabase’s Urban Radio Chart, Billboard x Triller US and Billbard x Triller Global charts. The track was Saweetie's second single to reach Billboard’s Hot 100. In August 2020, Saweetie released a “Tap In Remix” featuring Post Malone, DaBaby and Jack Harlow.
  - Sources: https://headlineplanet.com/home/2020/09/13/saweeties-tap-in-officially-reaches-1-at-urban-radio/, https://twitter.com/Saweetie/status/1299431551957045249, https://www.billboard.com/articles/business/chart-beat/9437670/saweetie-tap-in-no-1-top-triller-u-s-global-charts-streaming-songs
    - Done, rewritten and split up the cites. I think the tweet works here
- Add "All four singles are expected to be on Saweetie's Pretty Bitch Music, which is expected to be released in 2021.
  - Source is https://www.teenvogue.com/story/saweetie-pretty-bitch-music-building-an-empire-interview
    - Done So, unless my counting is wrong, it's three singles, not four. I rewrote.
- Add "In 2020, Saweetie was added to Forbes’ 30 Under 30 Music list and Variety’s Hitmakers Impact list."
  - Source is https://www.billboard.com/articles/columns/hip-hop/9491730/2021-forbes-30-under-30-music-list
    - Done
- Add “As of March 2021, Saweetie has also launched a jewelry line, a capsule clothing collection (partnering with retailer PrettyLittleThing) and a co-branded makeup collection with cosmetics retailer Morphe. In October 2020, she launched her own virtual, educational content series, Icy University.
  - Sources are https://www.essence.com/celebrity/saweetie-icy-baby-foundation/, https://www.cosmopolitan.com/entertainment/celebs/a35741192/saweetie-cosmopolitan-cover-interview-april-2021/

Hey LeannaTruong, I can help here (and surprised you didn't ping me.) Most look good. Made some edits and going through now. --FeldBum (talk) 19:06, 8 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hey LeannaTruong, guessing I should change her labels to include Icy too. --FeldBum (talk) 20:10, 8 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hi FeldBum, let's leave as is. We should be all set. Thanks so much for your help! — Preceding unsigned comment added by LeannaTruong (talk • contribs) 13:36, 9 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
