WP:BLP of a musician, not reliably sourced as having any strong claim to passing WP:NMUSIC. The strongest notability claim here is winning awards that aren't prominent enough to pass NMUSIC #8, and are "referenced" solely to those awards' own self-published websites about themselves rather than any evidence that they get enough media coverage to confer notability on their winners -- and besides that, the only other source here (now deadlinked) was her own self-published PR on the website of her own record label, and even on a ProQuest search for older coverage I just get a small handful of glancing namechecks of her existence in sources that aren't about her in any non-trivial way, with absolutely nothing substantive enough to count toward getting her over WP:GNG. Note also that I'm bundling her album, which is also an entirely primary-sourced article that fails to even provide a track listing. Absolutely nothing stated in either article is "inherently" notable enough to exempt her from having to pass WP:GNG on the sourcing. Bearcat (talk) 03:32, 18 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
