Although there is a WP:A7 tag on the article, I do not believe that it meets the criteria for speedy deletion as there is a claim of significance; charting in three different countries, although this is not supported by reliable sources. Not even one of the sources in the article could be considered reliable and I found nothing better in my WP:BEFORE search. Most likely a vanity article. Spiderone 12:32, 16 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete and salt – the claims of charting are false. The track in question has 13 plays on YouTube, subject has not been mentioned in a single reliable source. – Thjarkur (talk) 12:58, 16 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I strongly support WP:SALT. This strongly smells of a hoax. The article makes out that he has some massive online presence yet almost all of his YouTube videos have fewer than 10 views, he has 14 followers on Twitter, 760 followers on Facebook, 15 monthly listeners on Spotify, 83 followers on Soundcloud. Even I have more of an online following than this guy... Something does not add up. Yes, I know, lack of followers doesn't mean he isn't notable but, in the internet and social media era, it is rather unusual Spiderone 13:14, 16 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Speedy delete and Salt. Vanity article that has previously been A7 deleted twice. Claims not verified by the references given. --John B123 (talk) 15:53, 16 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
