- Hooks should contain a bolded link to the article and be under 200 characters long, so I've struck it. Please propose something much shorter.--Launchballer 12:48, 20 May 2024 (UTC)
- ALT1: ... that "Jump" is a cross-genre collaboration blending South African singer Tyla's vocals, American rapper Gunna's trap, and Jamaican musician Skillibeng's dancehall? "Jump" stands out as the sole hip hop or trap and dancehall infused song on Tyla's eponymous debut studio album, Tyla. Qaqaamba (talk) 13:23, 20 May 2024 (UTC)
- 162 characters after adding an oxford comma, which I have added to the article title. Full review needed.--Launchballer 14:59, 20 May 2024 (UTC)

- @Qaqaamba and Dxneo: As per WP:DYKINT, the hook should be "perceived as unusual or intriguing by readers with no special knowledge or interest." Might I suggest something maybe to do with the "Haibo!" adlib, the famous Hillbrow Tower in the video, or perhaps the viral "they ain't never had a pretty girl from..." trend? —cybertrip👽 ( 💬 • 📝) 08:35, 28 May 2024 (UTC)
- @Qaqaamba, Dxneo, and Cybertrip: I was going to propose "that two of the places referenced in Tyla's "Jump" are the same place", except it doesn't check out to the cited source. Can this be remedied?--Launchballer 13:12, 28 June 2024 (UTC)

- This is currently the oldest fully unreviewed nomination and I need a QPQ, so I'm reviewing. Long enough, new enough (though I'll admit to doing a double take when DYKcheck told me 'promoted to GA on June 6' when this was created on 15 May). No maintenance templates deserved, no QPQ incurred, no copyright complaints. I fear that the image may divert readers into Tyla's and Gunna's articles, so I won't approve it. As previously suggested, I am proposing ALT4: ... that two of the places referenced in Tyla's "Jump" are the same place? and will call for a new reviewer.--Launchballer 11:58, 10 July 2024 (UTC)

@Launchballer and Qaqaamba: I don't love being a buzzkill, but I'm a little concerned that someone might go to ERRORS to say "well she didn't reference two places, she referenced one place twice!". We could always workshop the hook to match, but I don't see how that could retain hookiness. Since this has been loitering for almost three months, I think I need to mark this for closure. theleekycauldron (talk • she/her) 02:34, 18 July 2024 (UTC)
