Fails notability per WP:MUSICBIO. I can find three pieces of news coverage on him but they are all examples of the musician talking about themself, which is an exception listed in the WP:MUSICBIO guidelines. Additionally the article reads strongly like WP:PROMO and has been edited by the subject. InDimensional (talk) 12:20, 9 April 2024 (UTC)

- Delete - Wikipedia's notability rules are tough for a music producer, who may have a long career full of credits and is sometimes mentioned briefly in sources that cover the records that he produced. Unfortunately, he still needs significant coverage in his own right, about his career from a historical and biographical angle. That just hasn't happened for this producer, and the content of this article is either a promotional attempt or the biography has simply been pasted from his own website. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (TALK|CONTRIBS) 13:28, 10 April 2024 (UTC)
