Under sourced musician article. Artist may possibly be notable, however, as it stands, he does not pass WP:MUSICBIO. Although the article states his album Blue Moods sold a million copies, I can not find it on any charts nor any reviews. I can barely find any coverage of him at all - he definitely fails WP:SIGCOV.

Keep. Do not delete. The subject of the article appears notable but under sourced. The first in line citation gives significant coverage and is a reliable source. Since it is not WP:BLP it should be kept for other editors to help add sources. Ugbedeg (talk) 10:48, 13 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Ugbedeg, could you be more specific about the source you're referencing? The first in line citation is about a different person, where Keni Stevens is mentioned in passing once. The only other biographical source looks like a blog. I want to agree with you, but I can't find any sources to substantiate any of the claims of the article. This actually is WP:BLP, and he does not pass WP:GNG nor any other notability checks. Mbdfar (talk) 19:44, 13 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete, per the nominator. Mbdfar's assessment of the article in The Guardian is correct - it is not about the subject, and contrary to Ugbedeg's assertion, does not provide any significant coverage about him. ♠PMC(talk) 07:47, 16 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
