Possible covert UPE on a Borderline G4 eligible article where the subject of the article lacks in-depth significant coverage in reliable sources. The only dubious change from the previous deleted one and this, is that the artist has been signed to a non notable record label just established in 2020. A WP:BEFORE on subject of our discussion, which you could perform as well just shows how blatantly non notable he is. Other hits are in press releases as well as mere announcements. This is still a case of WP:TOOSOON as it was previously. Celestina007 (talk) 14:25, 15 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep - Konde Music Worldwide is not an unknown record label and Ibraah is not blatantly non notable. Konde Music Worldwide is a big Record label in the East African region (and that SHOULD matter) and Ibraah is too. The region should not be underlooked like that. I'm not convinced it's too soon either as the artist has 1 million followers on Instagram and a whooping 17 million views on YouTube.PushaWasha (talk) 15:22, 15 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete: per nom, fails WP:NMUSICBIO, perhaps indeed WP:TOOSOON CommanderWaterford (talk) 10:49, 7 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak delete: can't find any sources, but it's plausible that some could exist and I'm not an expert in Tanzanian sources. However, given the context of the creation and the UPE/sockpuppetry, and the fact that there's no concrete evidence of GNG being met, I'm inclined towards deletion. — Bilorv (talk) 19:21, 8 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. "Ibraah Biography, Age, Education, Album, Songs, Girlfriend, Net Worth" and "Ibraah Biography, Age, Education, Album, Songs, Girlfriend, Net Worth" (yes, two refs with that same title) are not usable sources. The majority of these are download pages for the album. The Cyclone Times article is a passing mention of him quoted in an Instagram post. The only thing that seems like it even comes close to WP:SIGCOV is this one, but it seems fairly questionable in terms of being an independent RS. jp×g 03:34, 13 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
