 * Keep, multiple reviews at Allmusic, and an article of his time in The Hub at the San Francisco SF Weekly. Passes WP:MUSIC. And that was only after a 30 sec search.   Esradekan Gibb    "Talk" 00:32, 13 January 2009 (UTC)

 * Strong Keep. A glance at the Allmusic Guide profile Esradekan provided shows that Chris Brown has released two albums on John Zorn's Tzadik label: "Lava" and "Ruins". WP:MUSIC is quite clear on the notability guidelines here: if an artist "has released two or more albums on a major label or one of the more important indie labels (i.e. an independent label with a history of more than a few years and a roster of performers, many of which are notable)", then he or she is notable. Tzadik is an important indie label. It has published works by such notable artists as Buckethead, Ruins, Secret Chiefs 3, and Zorn himself. Chris Brown has released two albums on this major indie label. If you have released two or more albums on a major indie label, you are notable. Therefore, Chris Brown is notable.
