 * Kinda hard to see from the article itself, but I know this guy as being a fully paid-up member of the definitely notable Non Phixion. I remember him getting some press when his album dropped a few years back, but apart from this I can't pull much else out of Google right now - I'd love this to stay but gotta go for a Delete, unless reliable sources turn up before the close of this discussion. sparkl!sm hey! 20:38, 8 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Comment I've also found this and this - do these make a claim to notability? sparkl!sm hey! 20:46, 8 April 2009 (UTC)
 * The review you linked originally does indicate the possibility of notability but these 2 links are to a store (fatbeats.com) and a site that appears to mirror content from Amazon in order to drive traffic there. TheJazzDalek (talk) 20:53, 8 April 2009 (UTC)


 * Merge anything salvageable and redirect to Non Phixion, his band. Once his solo career goes somewhere he can have his own article, but until then we should direct people to the most relevant information, since it is a valid search term. &mdash; Gwalla | Talk 21:32, 8 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete: trivial coverage, no awards, non-notable artist. JamesBurns (talk) 01:28, 10 April 2009 (UTC)
