Bonga (singer and producer)

This article does not satisfy general notability or any of the musical notability criteria. Google search does not find information about the subject (the Tanzanian musician), only about the Angolan musician and the town in Ethiopia. The references in this article are in the nature of press releases rather than in-depth coverage.

Maintenance tags that have been applied to the article have been removed without discussion, so that there has been no effort at resolution of notability issues.

The article consists largely of promotional content and of trivia, which could be removed, but would not leave much because the subject is not notable. Robert McClenon (talk) 17:31, 10 March 2020 (UTC)
