I was unable to find any authoritative sources proving the notability of this artist, especially with great coverage. I've looked through multiple newspapers and used the Wikipedia Library and still found nothing. Most of the writing on the page is unsourced as well, using words like "hits" for songs that I couldn't find coverage for either. Jaguarnik (talk) 16:04, 17 January 2024 (UTC)

I am also nominating the following related page, because it is simply the group founded by Tyler, with also no claims to notability that I could find:
