Does not appear notable as a musical performer, no charted singles, no awards. The article (and most sourcing found in BEFORE) is largely related to the legal problems the individual is facing.

 * Delete. It's difficult to judge how well known he is. The only coverage I've found is news reports that he's facing criminal charges. There's pieces on social media and on websites but these don't appear to be reliable sources and what coverage there is lacks depth, so I don't think he passes WP:BIO or the WP:GNG. Doesn't satisfy the conditions of WP:CRIME as he's not been convicted. Nothing found on his musical career. Checked the South African official charts website https://theofficialsacharts.co.za and got zero results under both "Shebeshxt" and "Malome Shebe" so doubt he passes criterion 2 of WP:SINGER and nothing came up on Discogs search to support criterion 5.
