WP:BLP of a musician, who has no strong claim to passing WP:NMUSIC and no indication of reliable source coverage. The only references here are YouTube videos, iTunes and a WP:ROUTINE directory, not real media coverage, and the closest thing to a strong notability claim is charting on a single standalone radio station (but NMUSIC requires IFPI-certified charts, which Arman FM is not.) As always, musicians are not automatically entitled to Wikipedia articles just because they exist; to get a musician into Wikipedia, you have to be able to reference them a lot better than this.
