Not notable enough to be included in an encyclopedia. The creator's username proves this is an autobiography (and again it's not notable). &mdash; Music1201  talk  23:29, 3 April 2016 (UTC)

WP:BAND #9 criterion has been met. WP:BAND #5 criterion slightly met. Jltompkins10 (talk) 00:51, 4 April 2016 (UTC)
 * Winning the 6th Annual Horry County Schools Technology Fair would not be seen as a major award. On Wikipedia major awards would be things like winning a Grammy or the equivalent thereof. Local awards rarely, if ever, qualify as something that would even give partial notability on Wikipedia. The only time they do qualify for even partial notability is when the award winner gains some coverage for winning the award - something which I'm not seeing in this situation. As far as the record label goes, from what I can see the article states that you (I'm assuming that you are the performer himself) have released your album on your own label. While this doesn't automatically mean that you are self-publishing your works, it's not terribly far off from this and a major indie label would be one that has gained enough coverage in independent and reliable sources, likely enough to merit an article of their own. I don't see where you've gained any coverage at all. I hate that this all sounds so harsh, but I need you to understand why this article is up for deletion. Wikipedia heavily discourages people writing their own articles because it's so easy to see more notability than there might otherwise be and it's also extremely easy to take things personally. It takes a lot - an awful lot - to pass notability guidelines on Wikipedia, enough to where the vast majority of musicians wouldn't pass notability guidelines. We've all seen situations where musicians can play regularly, but still fail notability guidelines because their only coverage were routine notifications of events. I'm sorry, but I just don't see where you pass notability guidelines. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡)  03:33, 4 April 2016 (UTC)
 * I think this could actually be speedied via WP:A7 rather than a full AfD. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡)  03:33, 4 April 2016 (UTC)
 * I was thinking that but wasn't sure. &mdash; Music1201  talk  03:35, 4 April 2016 (UTC)
 * I'll go ahead and close/speedy the article/AfD. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡)  03:38, 4 April 2016 (UTC)
