Does not seem to meet musician notability requirements. The article is a BLP with only one source that doesn't even support any of the admittedly few grasps at notability the article makes. Nerd1a4i (talk) 16:36, 1 October 2017 (UTC)

 * Keep: the subject has had a string of hits on the Billboard R&B charts (including a no. 1), and has scraped into the lower reaches of the Billboard Hot 100, Billboard 200 Albums and the UK Singles Chart . He has an AllMusic biography  and articles in Billboard , . He's even written a song that featured on a Grammy-nominated album ("Never Let Go", from Walking By Faith by the Canton Spirituals), although admittedly, this is a more tenuous connection to notability.

 * Keep Music artists AfD's are filled with so many obvious candidates for deletion. THIS is the exact opposite. Plenty of qualifying billboard chart appearances alone make this a keep. Not sure why this was even nominated. ShelbyMarion (talk) 02:20, 2 October 2017 (UTC)
 * Keep. The coverage identified above (e.g., ) shows that the singer meets WP:GNG and WP:MUSICBIO.  gongshow  talk  02:26, 2 October 2017 (UTC)
 * Keep – Meets both GNG and WP:MUSIC and so is easily notable.  J 947(c) (m) 23:26, 3 October 2017 (UTC)
