Advertorially-tinged article about a musician with no strong claim to passing WP:NMUSIC, and no strong reliable source coverage. The notability claims here are that an EP exists and that it has "seen some radio airtime" -- but "notable just because the music exists" requires at least two full albums on major labels, not one independent EP on Bandcamp, and "notable because radio airplay" requires a reliable source to verify that they got playlisted by a national radio network, not just generically unverifiable claims of "some radio airtime". As for the sourcing, every single footnote here is either a primary source or a blog, and not even one of them is a notability-supporting reliable source.
