• Keep. The subject has worked with big entertainment industry names such as CKay, Yanga, Nasty C and K.O just to mention a few, and has also won a South African Hip Hip Award for freshman of the year last year. The subject was also named Apple Music's Up Next artist the same year

Unfortunately he cannot inherit notability from those he has worked with. WP:NOTINHERITED applies. He must have his own inherent notability Fiddle^Timtrent  Faddle^Talk to me 18:47, 3 January 2022 (UTC) reply

@ Timtrent, you missed the part where he won the award, is the South African Hip Hop Awards not notable? It's not actually inheriting someone's notability but more like the notable noted him and gave him a feature on multiple occasions and so did Apple Music.

• Keep, a BEFORE shows the subject satisfies WP:NMUSIC through this, this, this and this. Furthermore his album seems to have received above the bar coverage featuring on a music television network, featuring in local press here and here, also having a national concert tour in at least one sovereign country and being nominated for an AFRIMA and has won a South African Hip Hop Award. - Xclusivzik ( talk) 00:49, 4 January 2022 (UTC) reply
• Keep per Xclusivzik. This is a significant amount of coverage, along with what seems to be a major award for the genre in South Africa. AryKun ( talk) 05:54, 5 January 2022 (UTC) reply
