Non-notable musician. No sources I can find are reliable nor independent of the subject. A case of an article being written too soon.

Delete. I did find this
[1] and
[2] from sources claiming to be magazines and blogs, but man do they look like ad pieces instead of actual coverage. Plus they're not known by any editor on here, admins included. You know you're not dealing with good material to work with for a Wikipedia article if one of the brief pieces says "This North Carolina native is destined to be in the mentions of artists such as J. Cole and more."

I've removed both of those sources; "Disrupt" is a known SEO/paid placement sink, and "raptology" is just a collective blog with accuracy disclaimers - far from the RS we need for BLPs.

Delete - Good luck to him as he gets started, but his media presence so far is clearly in the form of reprinted press releases and minor blogs (as described by previous voters). He has not yet achieved the
reliable and significant coverage that is required for a Wikipedia article. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (

Do not delete - Subject is notable and an Independent Artist. The notable artists that this one is being compared to, are not independent within their music career. If the fixing of the article is no longer being questioned and it’s now a matter of notability, this can be addressed. This particular artist is notable within the independent artist sector of music. There are many different avenues to take for a music career and true independency is one of them. The article has been sourced properly. Because of lack of comparison to others, the subject shouldn’t be deleted. It’s a great start for any artist who is doing it alone. Remove the deletion and give the artist a chance and time. The subjects legitimacy isn’t questionable. What’s being questioned is his level of notability in comparison to others, which is somewhat discriminatory. — Preceding
