A handful secondary sources that are either espouse-like or cover very recent releases. Seems WP:TOOSOON for her on BLP based on multiple criteria in WP:SINGER. Comatmebro (talk) 03:40, 22 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - Coverage in Rolling Stone, NPR, Pitchfork (one article from them is a whole feature just on her), Vice, Consequence of Sound/Yahoo!, Paste, just to name a few. Also signed to a notable record label, Secretly Canadian. Passes WP:GNG by well over a mile with the coverage and being signed to label with an article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Andise1 (talk • contribs) 04:25, 22 May 2019 (UTC) — Note to closing admin: Andise1 (talk • contribs) is the creator of the page that is the subject of this AfD.

Keep: I know this singer-songwriter is still up-and-coming and it might seem WP:TOOSOON, but I think there's already enough sources to justify an article. In addition to the Pitchfork [1], Rolling Stone [2], Consequence of Sound [3] and Paste articles [4] mentioned above, we have an AllMusic biography [5], and reviews of her new album in AllMusic [6], Consequence of Sound again [7], Exclaim! [8], and in the UK it's also been reviewed in this month's issues of Mojo and Uncut (and I'd put money on it being reviewed in the next Q magazine, too).

Keep Yeah, it may be TOOSOON in regards to genuine achievement, and the coverage is fairly run of the mill/promotional, but it's widespread enough among a number of quality publications/websites, cited above, that based on that alone it would be a "weak keep", but quality of the sources reviewing the newest album, plus being released by a notable, albeit small, label put it cleanly over the top.

Comment Typically I would err on the side of deletion but I think there can be room for improvement on this stub with more sources. Trillfendi (talk) 14:30, 22 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
