Doesn't appear to pass WP:MUSIC. I only see one article with WP:SIGCOV, an article from the Darien Times (circulation: 6,454) from 2011. The rest is a bunch of non-notable awards. OhNoitsJamie Talk 20:50, 6 January 2022 (UTC)

- Delete "While Jessup's career has flourished, his personal life has always been troubled. He opened up in an Instagram post on November 22, 2021 about his turbulent childhood and mental health struggles." Where it isn't puffery like this, the entire article is just a resume, and was created by and is maintained by a small army of socks and SPAs, which most recently have been edit warring to remove the deletion notice from the article and revert any attempts to improve it. It does not meet GNG, and should be deleted. Trainsandotherthings ( talk) 23:55, 6 January 2022 (UTC)
- Delete He clearly does not yet meet our inclusion criteria for musicians. He is under 25 so this may well change, but at present there is no reason to have this article. John Pack Lambert ( talk) 13:15, 7 January 2022 (UTC)
- Delete per WP:TOOSOON, at least. He's a talented dude, so he should let his talent speak for itself rather than seeking sympathy like he's the only person who ever had a rough childhood. I can find no evidence that any of the items in his "Discography" were reviewed in reliable media and a few of them are only available in obscure screaming services (if that much). His "List of compositions" is just a personal resume. His awards are from real annual competitions but none of them ever receive significant coverage and they uniformly self-report the winners. However he does have one concert review at [1]. --- DOOMSDAYER520 ( TALK| CONTRIBS) 14:23, 7 January 2022 (UTC)
- Comment - I have made some improvements, removed puffery and fixed citations. I think this article is salvageable now. Tratshin ( talk) 06:27, 8 January 2022 (UTC)
- Comment You've done a nice job cleaning it up, but I don't see any improvements to the notability issue. The NYT and Santa Barbara Independent sources don't mention Jessup. OhNoitsJamie Talk 14:57, 8 January 2022 (UTC)
