Very little press coverage to warrant encyclopedic inclusion. Looks as though it is a self promotion article and nothing more. Megtetg34 (talk) 15:21, 10 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Weak Delete - a search for sources basically just turns up these few Billboard articles. I don't have a strong sense of the extent to which Billboard publishes press releases, but the "exclusive," although I don't have access to it, sounds like it may be just that. The only other good source I see is the "business power players" list, which isn't nothing but can also be promotional depending on the publication. Even assuming both of those sources are on the up-and-up, I'm just not seeing enough here for notability. Combine that with creation by an SPA (and a press photo uploaded by a different SPA) and I'm landing in the delete camp. — Rhododendrites ^talk \\ 12:16, 18 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
