While he did co-write a successful song I couldn't find any significant coverage about him specifically in reliable sources to pass notability. Mattg82 (talk) 21:54, 3 February 2018 (UTC)

 * Delete - He has worked in the music industry and has writing credit on some successful songs, but no references are given to support notability. Doing your job well is not enough to be notable.--Rpclod (talk) 12:59, 10 February 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete. While there are potentially valid notability claims present here, an article doesn't get kept for claiming notability — it gets kept for reliably sourcing that the claim of notability is true, which is what's missing here. And furthermore, the article has a decidedly advertorial slant to it, so even if it were properly referenced it would still have to be significantly rewritten for neutrality anyway. No prejudice against recreation in the future if somebody can write something much more objective and much better referenced than this. Bearcat (talk) 21:52, 14 February 2018 (UTC)
