Non-notable. Article is written by User:Andyroda, so there's an obvious conflict of interest here (he humbly refers to himself as a "musical prodigy"). Only six results on Google news. The first two (out of three) sections, in terms of sourcing, are derived from the subject's blog and a youtube video. I can't access the other sources at the moment, but thats probably because my connection is faltering at the moment, so maybe someone else can verify them.

 * Comment The article at the very least needs a serious rewrite. I attempted to work on it, but kept hitting edit conflicts. The use of YouTube as a secondary WP:RS is not good. The WP:POV problems are entirely out of control. I am reserving any more judgment until I have a chance to check the sources and the current edit wave calms down a bit. 98.212.129.124 (talk) 07:11, 23 April 2009 (UTC)


 * Delete per nom and WP:MUSIC.   — Jeff G. (talk&#124;contribs) 19:25, 23 April 2009 (UTC)


 * Keep he meets WP:Music on several counts including placing in a major competition, multiple albums, has performed music for notable media. Needs a serious re-write and he needs to stop doing it himself. Drawn Some (talk) 00:04, 25 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep and clean up. I think the guy is notable. ChildofMidnight (talk) 00:30, 25 April 2009 (UTC)

 * Delete The 24K was actually given to an album by the Kitty Girls who are most likely the recipients. Ref 7 which covers this makes no mention of his name at all, meaning he was not part of the receiving team for the award. It doesn't even confirm he had any part in it. The Billboard link is to that band too. Andy doesn't appear to have one. The link to the movie website doesn't mention him either. A lot of claims and a lot of links, but when you dig deeper the sources are either unreliable, not independent or not actually confirming the facts they're attached to. - Mgm|(talk) 10:13, 8 May 2009 (UTC)
