LK (Carolina Carol Bela)

(
)

Created by Launchballer (talk). Self-nominated at 13:36, 22 May 2023 (UTC). Post-promotion hook changes for this nom will be logged at Template talk:Did you know nominations/LK (Carolina Carol Bela); consider watching this nomination, if it is successful, until the hook appears on the Main Page.

  • I might review this in the future, but for now, I have to say that the current hook doesn't really appeal to a broad audience. Unless the reader is familiar with the names mentioned, the hook doesn't seem significant or interesting. Can something else be proposed here? A QPQ is also needed.

ALT1: that DJ Marky had to pay Jorge Ben royalties for LK (Carolina Carol Bela) after it was played in America and Jorge's son heard it?--Launchballer 16:18, 6 June 2023 (UTC)
Probably better, but it might need clarifications on who these names are for those unfamiliar with them. Narutolovehinata5 (talk · contributions) 04:04, 7 June 2023 (UTC)

ALT2: ... that the Brazilian drum and bass musician DJ Marky had to pay Jorge Ben royalties for LK (Carolina Carol Bela) after Ben's son Gabriel heard it being played in America? (Context should make it clear who Jorge Ben is.)--Launchballer 07:29, 7 June 2023 (UTC)

I've been thinking about this for a while and while I like the direction, I do admit it's a bit clunky. I wonder if there's a way to make it more concise while still making it accessible to people unfamiliar with the names given (which is why I don't think ALT1 as currently written should be the option).

ALT3: ... that the Brazilian musician DJ Marky had to pay Jorge Ben royalties for LK (Carolina Carol Bela) after his son overheard it in America?--Launchballer 07:19, 12 June 2023 (UTC)
Almost there, it just needs to be clarified that it was Ben's son who heard the song. If I were you, what I could do is to make the hook passive (as in, mention Jorge Ben's son first) then put the song name at the end, mainly to avoid the clunky wording and avoid ambiguity.

ALT4: ... that the Brazilian musician DJ Marky had to pay Jorge Ben royalties for LK (Carolina Carol Bela) after Ben's son overheard it in America?
ALT5: ... that after the son of música popular brasileira musician Jorge Ben caught LK (Carolina Carol Bela) being played in America, its creator DJ Marky had to pay Ben royalties?--Launchballer 10:17, 12 June 2023 (UTC)
  • I think ALT4 works but as I've admittedly somewhat delayed this nomination and honestly felt that I made it more of a mess than it should be, I am recusing myself and asking for a new reviewer to take over. Narutolovehinata5 (talk · contributions) 09:59, 17 June 2023 (UTC)
  • QPQ needs to be provided within 7 days of nominating. This was nominated 30 days ago. I suggest we close this unless a QPQ turns up forthwith. Schwede66 19:51, 21 June 2023 (UTC)
Template:Did you know nominations/Le Corricolo, just above ALT2.--Launchballer 19:56, 21 June 2023 (UTC)
  • Still needs a new reviewer; QPQ has been submitted. BlueMoonset (talk) 19:09, 2 July 2023 (UTC)
  • Did some WP:verifying that kind of ended up belying these hooks; the source (“Jorge Ben’s son, Gabriel, heard the track in the clubs, it had reached America by that stage, so we had to pay them for the rights. That said, Toquinho didn’t charge us anything. He lives close to me, he’s a gentle soul. Anyway, we got it cleared, which was great – it’s a lot more difficult to get samples cleared these days.) does not unambiguously say that royalties were actually paid. So probably want a hook in another vein altogether. Nevertheless I can give approval for everything else – length, newness, no copyvio, cites (though the use of inlines a bit funky). Proposing this hook for a second set of eyes to approve:
Sources: 1: "it was a bit of vocal that [mainstay d&b MC] Stamina had been doing over the top of the track, so we immediately got him into the studio to record a final version and put that out." 2: I played Linden [Stamina MC] the track, and he started freestyling over it ... ‘Something amazing is happening, and we need to bring Stamina into the studio right now!’ That’s how we ended up putting it down, and it just blew up.

  • Haha, nothing of importance – "Carolina Carol Bela",[2] the B-side[1] of "Que Maravilha".[4] just funny to see very specific facts per citation. Hameltion (talk | contribs) 12:53, 6 July 2023 (UTC)
As written, [4] implies "Que Maravilha/Carolina Carol Bela" was a double A-side, and [1] doesn't mention "Que Maravilha", so I need both.--Launchballer 13:32, 6 July 2023 (UTC)
