Not notable. Lacks coverage in multiple independent reliable sources. There is one source that may be good, SoulTrain.com, but the rest are not. Minor mentions, a photo, primary, blogs, twitter. A search found nothing better. duffbeerforme (talk) 07:27, 16 October 2014 (UTC)

BET and Billboard are not acceptable sources? The BET articles/video are not minor mentions. The BET Awards is a major award show. HollyQ (talk) 16:17, 16 October 2014 (UTC)
 * The first BET source, repeated, is part of their promotional material for their awards, not independent. The second is him talking about himself, not independent. The Billboard source is a trivial mention and in inclusion in a photo. No depth of coverage. This article and the "coverage" out there appears to be someone trying to promote him as the next big thing. But in the years since he has not become what they hoped. duffbeerforme (talk) 12:36, 21 October 2014 (UTC)
