WP:BLP of a writer and photographer, whose claims of notability for both endeavours are tied entirely to unsourced assertions of popularity on social media rather than anything that would pass WP:NMUSIC or WP:CREATIVE. And there's virtually no reliable source coverage here, with the referencing based almost entirely on unreliable sources like Myspace, Shazam, last.fm, SoundCloud, ReverbNation and YouTube. The only thing here that lifts him even slightly into the realm of RS coverage is a Q&A-style interview on The Huffington Post -- but interviews represent the subject talking about himself, not independent third party coverage, and hence may not be used to bring the WP:GNG in and of themselves, but only for supplementary confirmation of facts after GNG has already been met. All of which means that nothing here is substantive enough, or sourced well enough, to get him a Wikipedia article at this time. Delete. Bearcat ( talk) 04:25, 13 February 2016 (UTC)
