This one is definitely borderline, mainly because the subject doesn't meet WP:PERP, and although he's supposedly a former child star and current hip-hop artist, the gospel tune mentioned in the article appears to be his only real hit song ever, and the South African charts that are RS are for airplay only. Therefore, I can't verify anything in the vein of WP:BAND, WP:ACTOR, or anything like that. There is a lot of coverage, but it is all written about the court case and things that happened afterwards. The articles aren't tremendously in-depth, and tend to be repetitious. In short, I can't determine with any certainty if he was really notable prior to the crime, and the crime itself hasn't been portrayed as notable other that the fact that it involves a minor B-list celebrity (maybe?), so despite the coverage, I can see this being WP:NOTNEWS.
