Notability
Howdy,

I removed the 2021 tag for notability from this article, as I find that the subject meeds Wikipedia's eligibility requirements for musicians and ensembles, USA Today, The Orlando Sentinel, Huffington Post, and other cited publications have covered Smith independently. The three listed publications are particularly reliable sources. Those covering his 2020 arrest are particularly non-trivial. Smith has also been covered in magazines like Entrepreneur, Forbes, and Black Enterprise, which are less reliable/have the capacity to be more opinion-driven but still attest to his significance.

The previous attempt to delete the article was shot down under the same criteria. So it's been confirmed that he's notable enough for the article to stand and thus the issue was resolved quite a while ago.
