Subject appears to fail notability guidelines, he is a musician that has gained some mild success on YouTube. He has released one album that hasn't received any commercial success. The entire article has one source, which is just a tracklist for the album.  NYSM y talk page  23:31, 7 January 2013 (UTC)
 * Also, as seen here, the creator of the article appears to have some personal connection with the subject. (COI)  NYSM y talk page  23:35, 7 January 2013 (UTC)


 * Delete for now - He has earned quite a reputation but it seems he is best known for only his YouTube work at this time. A Google News search provided results here (Argentine news article talking about his cover song), here (British news article for the same video), here and here (News entries for the video game and theme song medleys). A different search provided a music review for his album here and another different search provided this blog. I watched the theme song medley and will say he is very talented and I'm sure he will have a successful career but there isn't much for an article now. I'm voting delete with no prejudice for a future article or userfying the article. SwisterTwister   talk  04:33, 8 January 2013 (UTC)

 * userfy with a recommended delay of, say, six months before resubmission. (Give FG time to accumulate a few more sources). I wonder if WP doesn't need a bit of a rethink on YouTube notability, what with the general move to electronic media?  David_FLXD  (Talk) 05:31, 14 January 2013 (UTC)

 * Comment Since literally anyone can post to YouTube for any reason they feel, lets leave it out of the notability criteria please. Яεñ99 (talk) 13:13, 28 January 2013 (UTC)
