Promotion for non notable singer. Claimed charting is not GOODCHARTS and is not verified by any of the three sources used. Has got a little tabloid attention because of who his step father is but Wikipedia is not a tabloid. Article is bombarded with a lot of sources but falls short of GNG. Blogs, PR, primary, him talking about himself, routine announcements, listings, indiscriminate local puff. Allmusic is only a small paragraph. Only reasonable one appears to be the upcoming one from iHeartRadio. Article is straight out PR complete with official promo shot. duffbeerforme (talk) 12:45, 10 July 2019 (UTC)

 * Delete - Seems like a bloated piece of promotion to me. Notability is not established through what is present here, and who his stepfather is shouldn't matter because notability is not inherited.   Red Phoenix  talk  20:05, 19 July 2019 (UTC)
 * Keep Need to cut down on a lot of fluff but page belongs on Wiki as he is a creative professional WP:CREATIVE who has created a notable work. Seems to have sufficient sources WP:RS as well. Rocktober2018 (talk) 17:34, 22 July 2019 (UTC)
 * What notable work has he created? Which sources do you consider to be good? duffbeerforme (talk) 12:23, 24 July 2019 (UTC)


 * Delete Nominator covers the problems with the sources fairly well, as well as WP:BADCHARTS. Additional RS are only tangentially about the subject, or trivial namechecks. iHeartRadio Artist of the week is not a significant achievement; there are many "artist of the week" designations assigned by a particular user's listening preferences, although this article--as pointed out by the nominator--is the only decent one. Overall promotional and evidently a vanity article by SPA editor. Just another artist who releases their own music and claims major label status merely by being a customer of a major label's distribution service. ShelbyMarion (talk) 12:16, 24 July 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete. Possibly WP:G11-worthy.  It's not a good sign when the lede talks about future albums with rumored collaborations.  -- RoySmith (talk) 01:48, 25 July 2019 (UTC)
