Interesting life and music, on good sources, no copyvio obvious. Hook: I don't like the first because he is famous as a singer, not a drummer, and don't expect us to know. The name doesn't tell us from which corner of the world he came, - how about mentioning Surinam? I think the "the" in ALT1 is not good. - In the article, I see almost too much detail. I don't care about one particular microphone setting at one particular function, for example. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 10:31, 10 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Hi Gerda, thanks for reviewing. I have removed some of the smaller details (like the microphone incident). How is this for a revised hook? Joofjoof (talk) 00:18, 13 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
ALT1a:... that Surinamese singer Shahied Wagid Hosain was more famous for his Bollywood song covers than his own songs? Source: [3]
Thank you! How about this?
ALT1b:... that Surinamese singer Shahied Wagid Hosain was famous for his Bollywood song covers, more than for his own songs?
- On top of User:Drmies, there's an essay you may want to take to heart. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 06:15, 13 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
ALT1b looks good to me.
