Completely unsourced WP:BLP, edging into advertorial/fansite writing tone, of a singer whose strongest claim of notability is that he competed on, but did not win, Canadian Idol. He has had no identifiable career as a recording or touring musician since then, and thus has no claim to passing WP:NMUSIC, and the media coverage of him doesn't even remotely approach WP:GNG. (I'm listed as the original creator here, but I'm actually not — I merely cleaned up a WP:COPYVIO issue which necessitated the deletion of all prior edits by other people. And at any rate, our notability and inclusion standards are much stricter now than when this was first created in 2005 — so even if this was technically a keepable article at one time, it isn't a keepable article by today's standards.)

 * Delete as none of this suggests the necessary solid independent notability. SwisterTwister   talk  23:23, 1 May 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete or Redirect to Canadian Idol per WP:MUSBIO, which says Singers and musicians who are only notable for participating in a reality television series may be redirected to an article about the series, until they have demonstrated that they are independently notable. He's known only for participating in Canadian Idol but did not finish in the top three of that season. I could not find any evidence of notability after Canadian Idol.
