Article claims subject is an artist, record producer & composer but subject fails WP:SINGER, WP:COMPOSER & WP:BASIC. All references provided in the article are not by reliable media & do not establish notability for the subject. A WP:BEFORE shows subject is not yet notable.

 *  Comment Delete Some of the more focused coverage of this guy revolves around his production of "Jealous" by Fireboy DML. It seems like Nigeria's charting method is up to each news outlet to determine, but if we assume some reliability, his production of this reportedly chart-topping song may mean he meets WP:SINGER... also assuming we apply that criteria to producers and not just primary artists. Any known precedent regarding rap producers of questionable notability? Lots of factors here to wade through. Skeletor3000 (talk) 00:38, 16 November 2019 (UTC)


 * As per WP:SINGER subject should have multiple non-trivial, published works that has appearances in sources that are reliable & not self-published and are independent of the musician. So could you provide such reliable references for us that shows he passes WP:SINGER ? the ones in the article clearly shows he doesn’t scale through. Even as per WP:GNG he doesn’t qualify. perhaps a case of WP:TOOSOON. Hence a Delete !vote is very applicable to this article. Also you provided a reference that is about a certain artist called “Fireboy DML” that reference doesn’t speak about the subject of our AFD. Celestina007 (talk) 10:35, 16 November 2019 (UTC)
 * He's listed as a producer on the Fireboy DML track as well as some other "charting" tracks in Nigeria. I can find sources and organize the info later if you'd like, but I'm leaning toward delete being the proper response here after reading up on how Nigeria's "charts" work. I'm putting it in quotes because every news outlet decides their own charts. There's no national equivalent to Billboard, etc. Some just list the most viewed YouTube videos of the week, for example. To me this suggests that, even if he produced some popular songs, the lack of any real charting system removes validity from that aspect of any claim to notability.

 * Delete fails WP:BASIC. Mahveotm (talk) 12:25, 16 November 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete. A Google search doesn't show the subject being discussed in reliable sources. He has not done enough to warrant stand-alone inclusion. The subject might become a prominent figure in the future but as of right now, he is still an up and coming producer.  Versace1608   Wanna Talk? 15:58, 16 November 2019 (UTC)
