WP:BLP of a musician, not properly referenced as having any strong claim to passing WP:NMUSIC. The notability claim here is that his music exists, not that he achieved anything with it that would pass NMUSIC's accomplishment-based tests (charting hits, touring, notable music awards, etc.), and the referencing isn't solid enough to get him over the "notable because he has media coverage" either: the sources are almost entirely blogs and directory entries and primary sources that aren't support for notability, as well as a 68-word blurb in a "many blurbs about many things" column which isn't a substantive source. The only footnote that's actually contributing anything at all toward getting him over WP:GNG is #1 (Exclaim!), which is not enough by itself. Nothing here is "inherently" notable enough to exempt him from having to have considerably more than just one hit of reliable source coverage in real media.

Delete per nomination. Falls short of any criteria outlined in WP:NMUSICIAN. ~dom Kaos~ (talk) 16:41, 2 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete (my preference) or Redirect to Keram Malicki-Sánchez if required by policy, though I doubt if anyone would search for the exact phrase "Keram (Musical Artist)". The guy is a multimedia jack-of-all-trades under his full name, for which there is already an article. He has done some music under the shorter name used in this article, and there is nothing here that is not already mentioned at the other article. His music does not have enough media notice to justify its own article here. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (Talk|Contribs) 19:38, 2 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, wow, I missed that there was already a much longer and more detailed and better referenced article about him at his full name. That's definitely not in a deletable state (although there are still some referencing issues with it too), so I'm just going to withdraw this discussion and redirect the article there. Thanks for catching that. Bearcat (talk) 12:38, 3 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
