Non-notable musical businessperson. No links found other than social media, no mentions in RS in Gnews. Oaktree b (talk) 22:46, 5 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I didn't know they gave out multiple Grammy awards (or even nominations) to people with no notability. Interesting. Trainsskyscrapers (talk) 23:50, 5 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The album won, he didn't. Oaktree b (talk) 00:56, 6 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

He's an actual 2-time Grammy winner (with a verified page on the Grammys website).

Sorry. I don't make the rules.

This is needlessly sarcastic. Notability isn't an intrinsic attribute of an article's subject, it's about their coverage in independent, secondary, reliable sources. jlwoodwa (talk) 18:18, 21 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. The Recording Academy seems to consider him a Grammy nominee and winner, even if it's for a project he worked on rather than an individual award. That passes WP:NMUSIC. Kalethan (talk) 15:19, 11 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Grammy awards for recordings are given to individuals (performers and production team, generally). For "performance" it often does not apply to the production team, and only to performers, but that's not the case here, so WP:NMUSICBIO#C8 applies. —siro χ o 02:01, 20 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
