This is a biography of a singer who works pretty hard to push a social media campaign to become famous - I do not see that he meets WP:NMUSIC, however. A large number of followers on Twitter or Instagram is not proof of notability. I have looked at German-language sources, and the de.wp version of the article (which is the origin of the en.wp article), and not found any significant coverage, even for the incident in Ulm. There are a couple of sources for him being called "the German Justin Bieber", but many more sources giving that (questionable) epithet to another German singer. Finally, the chart positions for his album Compass are not for any charts mentioned in Charts, as far as I can tell. bonadea contributions talk 10:15, 30 April 2017 (UTC)
 * Keep Meets WP:NMUSIC #2 by having an album charting #4 on Billboard German Albums. The English page is a direct translation from the German Wikipedia article on the artist, but the wiki link to the English version and refs weren't included. The Ulm inccident is reported by Spiegel Online here. The comparison with Justin Bieber is made by Noisey on this article. Just needs some serious work. Wapunguissa (talk) 17:38, 30 April 2017 (UTC)
