Article is constructed exclusively out of original research, broken links and junk sources for a BLP. Appears to be a fairly successful musician, but with no particular claim to notability. CorporateM (Talk) 17:17, 9 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment It's true that most of his press coverage is non-notable announcements - typically that he is appearing at this or that elementary school. However, one of his albums was nominated for a Grammy;[1] I'm not sure if that means he meets WP:MUSIC. --MelanieN (talk) 04:59, 16 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep Being nominated for a Grammy satisfies criterion #8 at WP:MUSICBIO. I'll add the link to the article so that it is verified. The article still needs a lot of work, but AfD is not for cleanup. --MelanieN (talk) 15:55, 16 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep - notability satisfied by Grammy nomination (WP:MUSICBIO). Not extremely notable and not something a huge amount people would be interested in but that is far besides the point. Thank you, --ceradon (talk • contribs) 07:37, 23 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
