Does not satisfy musical notability or general notability. The listing relies heavily on unreliable sources such as YouTube and on vanity sources. None of the titles listed in the discography are themselves notable. Robert McClenon (talk) 12:44, 7 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Very weak sourcing, majority completely unreliable. The only reliable source in the article is this interview ref #6 but as a typical interview to lifestyle section of an online newspaper it cannot help to establish any notability. I cannot find sources in any reliabe media about his life and he does not pass any of the 12 points listed at WP:NMUSICBIO.– Ammarpad (talk) 15:15, 7 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Delete as WP:PROMO intended solely for publicity purposes and prohibited by policy. For those who don't know the history, the article was created by the artist's label (now blocked), maintained by sockpuppets (now blocked), and deleted multiple times. IP and sockpuppet editors also repeatedly attempted to add this artist's name (with redlinks) into other artist articles. Whether this is coordinated out of an PR office building somewhere or just coincidentally done by a bunch of different enthusiastic fans, it's still clearly intended for publicity purposes, regardless of tone. As WP:PROMO says,Wikipedia is not a soapbox or means of promotion. Looking at the sourcing and online searches, which amount to PR puffery and interviews in which the subject says anything he likes about himself, this subject clearly falls into that category, and the article should be deleted as a matter of policy.
