Doesn't pass WP:GNG. There appears to be no reliable sources backing up the notability of this artist. Seems to be a promising new rapper, though -- maybe he'll get an article later. Stevie is the man! Talk • Work 16:38, 30 September 2016 (UTC)


 * Comment "Famous Birthdays" is a very notable source and has a large following. Not just anyone gets written about on their site. They are known for fact checking. The publisher of the material is Laura Ruiz. There are sources in this article(Iamdominiquelee) that directly support the material on their(Famous Birthdays) website such as ITunes and Kentucky Birth index "US public records" This Article shouldn't be deleted.

 * And from my understanding it is not required to have more than one reliable source to create a Wikipedia article. Shawntheman (talk) 17:32, 30 September 2016 (UTC)
 * I'm sorry but you understand wrong. "Multiple" reliable sources are expressly required. One does not suffice. Shawn in Montreal (talk) 19:09, 30 September 2016 (UTC)
 * I won't add to what others have correctly said about Famous Birthdays, but the other cites only prove existence of this person, not notability. If existence is all that was required, there would be an article for me and for you.  :)  Stevie is the man!  Talk • Work 20:50, 30 September 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete. Famous Birthdays, according to its own information page, comprises user-submitted information, at least in part, and that information does not appear to be distinguished from material over which the site executes direct editorial control. I do not believe it constitutes a reliable source in the sense Wikipedia uses that term. That aside, the notability standard for the project, in its broadest terms is: "significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject". The nature of the Famous Birthdays site makes it very unlikely that its coverage of this subject is truly independent; none of the other sources provided are independent, either. My own search efforts do not suggest that reliable sources have provided this subject with significant coverage (at least not yet). Squeamish Ossifrage (talk) 18:47, 30 September 2016 (UTC)

 * Delete per nom - I couldn't find any evidence of passing WP:MUSBIO either - David Gerard (talk) 20:11, 30 September 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete: fails WP:GNG and WP:MUSICBIO. Famous Birthdays is just a publicity site: the person mentioned, Laura Ruiz, is Head of Marketing, and it states in her bio on the site that she "enjoys working with up and coming celebs to get them profiled on Famous Birthdays", which doesn't sound very independent to me. Even if it were an RS, all it would prove is that Mr. Lee exists and has a birthday – there's no evidence that he's done anything notable as yet. Richard3120 (talk) 20:16, 30 September 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete As stated above, the subject fails WP:GNG and WP:MUSICBIO. I would not consider Famous Birthdays a reliable sources from this on their about page: "Help complete pending profiles by submitting missing info". User-submitted items that are unsourced? Not a chance. RickinBaltimore (talk) 20:19, 30 September 2016 (UTC)
