I feel as there are a lot of people looking for this artist right now and he is growing faster each day. This info has sources that confirm everything in the article and I see no reason for deletion. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ktthatme (talk • contribs) 13:33, 18 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Can I get a update on this? - Ktthatme — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ktthatme (talk • contribs) 02:13, 21 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: So of the 11 "sources" provided, five of them are links to his music on Spotify or iTunes, which aren't really references, three are to his own social media sites on Facebook, Twitter and Nova Design Group, Ellis's media company, and another reference is to a blog. What we need is independent reliable sources. K.T. That Me, would you by any possible chance be related to Kyle Treadwell, Ellis's friend, manager and co-founder of Nova Design Group, and therefore having a COI in this deletion discussion? I genuinely wish Mr Ellis all success with his career, but being generous this is a serious case of WP:TOOSOON and an editor with a vested interest in promoting the artist in question.

Delete as nothing actually suggesting the solidity of independent notability, there is information and sources but nothing actually beyond convincing. SwisterTwister talk 07:09, 2 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
