Stronger verb, please

Could this "His pioneering status and outstanding achievements have led to him being referred to as..." be "His pioneering status and outstanding achievements have earned him the name...." lightly different meaning, but bolder and punchier. Hughdbrown (talk) 00:10, 2 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Missing Album?

"Ever Since" is not listed in the discography. I would fix this myself but this is my first edit on wikipedia and I'm not confident enough to fix it. Also, everywhere I look online it says it was released in 2002, but I am 100% sure I bought this album in 2001 from a second hand store, but whatever, as long as it's there.

ironic anti-prediction in his first popular album... re. winning a Juno

I wonder if, since the article mentions his later song referring to the success of his previous album, the article should also say something about how he "holds the following awards and distinctions: two Juno Awards, 12 Juno nominations..." and yet on Symphony In Effect (technically his 2nd album, but his first that was successful) the 9th song "The Maestro" includes his rebellious "screw the establishment's recognition" viewpoint: "I may never win a Grammy, or a Juno. But that's okay because I know that you know The undisputed, number one MC No rockstar could touch this poetry..." 199.214.17.91 (talk) 17:54, 16 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
