I cannot find independent reliable sources in order to satisfy WP:BIO or WP:NMUSIC. The included Stern source is unsuitable as it is an interview. The other 2 sources are not independent reliable sources. There is a few lines devoted to the album at Clash (magazine) here but that is scraping the barrel. A case of WP:TOOSOON.

Withdrawn by nominator. Foreign language Ruhr Nachrichten and Frankenpost independent reliable sources have come to light since putting this article forward for deletion. -Lopifalko (talk) 19:45, 4 June 2019 (UTC)

 * Keep. I added some references. Eastmain (talk • contribs) 21:58, 2 June 2019 (UTC)
 * Keep. Several releases, playing live on various festivals, toured with AnnenMayKantereit and Joan As Police Woman, currently touring for his album in Europe, often in sold out locations. The German wikipedia article has been accessed over 10k in the last three month alone. Nearly a dozen independent refs in the article. Stern is one of the top 3 news magazines in Germany, if he has been interviewed by them, this alone indicates notability. Honestly, what is this about? --NiTen (talk) 04:50, 3 June 2019 (UTC)
 * What is this about? sources, that is all. Your "nearly a dozen" in the German article is in fact 8. landstreicher-booking.de is certainly not an independent reliable source, the clue is in the name, "booking". thenationalstudent.com and italiamusicexport.com are not either. I don't know about indiemusic.fr. ruhrnachrichten.de and frankenpost.de are much better sources. Clash and Stern I have already mentioned. For the issue with interviews in otherwise independent reliable sources please see Common sourcing mistakes (notability), Interviews and No original research#Notes. -Lopifalko (talk) 05:16, 3 June 2019 (UTC)
 * Thanks for educating me. After 15 years of writing articles for Wikipedia, and over 2,000 articles in the German and over 300 articles in the English Wikipedia this is what I really need. Someone explaining me what "sources" are. I know that some of the sources in the article are not really adequate, but that Stern and Clash dedicate articles to the subject indicate it's notability. And yeah, some of the information on him is only available in the press text from his booking agency. What's the point of waiting til a press outlet copies this text to make it notable? --NiTen (talk) 05:49, 3 June 2019 (UTC)
 * Keep. Several sources added by Eastmain.--Cryptowriter (talk) 12:11, 3 June 2019 (UTC)
