GNG fail. All the sources and inline links seem to lead to the subject. I found nothing independent in a search. The awards are all web-based awards that allow you to enter after paying a fee. Appears to be solely a promotional use of Wikipedia. ThatMontrealIP (talk) 21:22, 24 January 2020 (UTC)

 * Delete fails WP:GNG and WP:NMUSIC. Awards are insignificant but are made to sound important for WP:PROMO purposes. Heck they even say how to promote oneself, (In a state the obvious way). Mattg82 (talk) 21:59, 24 January 2020 (UTC)
 * Yes, promotion is the name of the game here. I found this article as I was checking to see if any articles used CHILLFILTR.com, the article subject's creation, as a source. Chillfiltr.com allows you to submit news items for promotion, for a fee. It's all part of a strategy to create a tissue-paper thin veneer of notability.

 * Interesting. I love the pretentiousness for all songs listed on the home page. Mattg82 (talk) 22:39, 24 January 2020 (UTC)


 * Delete - Thanks to the folks above for finding that all the awards are bogus. All coverage to be found on this musician are bogus news articles on those bogus awards, and various other self-created mythology like his fancy but thin "reviews" blog. The gentleman has little going for him except self-promotion at this point. ---  DOOMSDAYER 520 (Talk&#124;Contribs) 23:14, 24 January 2020 (UTC)
 * Weak delete - there's some evidence of playing around the country. If a tour could be verified, then he'd pass MUSICBIO. Bearian (talk) 18:29, 30 January 2020 (UTC)
