 * It seems she has gotten some significant coverage in major publications, including the Guardian, the New Yorker, and the German edition of Rolling Stone. This coverage mostly seems to be about the album, but the coverage does spend quite a bit of time talking about her background and her eclectic style. It also appears she won an award in Germany from something called the "Via awards." I don't know if this coverage is extensive enough to satisfy WP:SINGER. It seems to be borderline, but at the moment I would lean toward weak delete. Chagropango (talk) 12:01, 15 November 2022 (UTC)
 * Keep When you see reviews in places like in the Guardian, for example,  which is a established newspaper its probably notable. If there is more than three newspapers of good standing, then it is definently notable. Look at social media also. Social Blade is a good way, particularly for new acts, if they're is many fans, its likely notable. Spotify is good and the other streamers, they can tell you if there is plenty of streaming. If there is, its likely notable. Looks at WP:MUSICRS, which is a list of reliable WP:RS sources. If you see in the articles references, that there is several reviews or stories in references, that is from one of the sites in WP:MUSICRS, then it is likely notable. Its a different criteria of search for old or really old bands, who may not be known in the modern era. Hope that helps.    scope_creep Talk  12:37, 16 November 2022 (UTC)
 * Keep per WP:BASIC and WP:CREATIVE - there are reviews of her collective body of work in e.g. The Guardian (2021), NPR (2021), AllMusic (2021), The New Yorker (2021), Pitchfork (2017), The Cut (2017), and she is profiled in The New Statesman (2021) and interviewed by Flood Magazine (2021) with secondary context and commentary about her background and style.

 * Keep as per the multiple reliable sources coverage identified in this discussion such as The Guardian, Rollingstone, AllMusic and others that show a pass of WP:GNG so that deletion is unnecessary in my view, Atlantic306 (talk) 21:21, 18 November 2022 (UTC)
