Delete at best, it's far too soon for this singer to have an article, clear fail of WP:NSINGER. There doesn't seem to be any coverage of the subject outside of profiles like submithub (and things like that don't seem to be reliable or independent). We need more than assertations by users that the person is well known, there need to be reliable sources providing significant coverage to him. As Lamstamps (who may have a connection to the article) notes, there are very few articles on him. If he is indeed an upcoming artist, perhaps he will become notable later.

@Eddie891, This is not even a case of 'toosoon' it’s just a case of a PR organization using Wikipedia to promote the non existent musical career of one of their clients. The blatant sock puppetry is indicative of this. Celestina007 (talk) 17:09, 4 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Celestina007, Well that's probably true, but I was preferring to AGF (before they were confirmed socks). Anyways it's still a delete vote from me... Best, Eddie891 ^Talk _Work 12:31, 6 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete — Woefully falls short of WP:MUSICBIO. Celestina007 (talk) 17:04, 4 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

*Don't Delete - This musician really exist in Nigeria but MeakMedia Is just like a PR. So I think we should block the author from editing and then leave the article with a template saying citation needed because the musician really exist but the author was not right using the name he made use of. But the article should not be deleted. — Preceding unsigned comment added by RealMeHero (talk • contribs) 21:59, 4 July 2020 (UTC) — RealMeHero (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic. struck sock vote Dreamy Jazz ^{talk to me | my contributions} 16:01, 5 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

RealMeHero, sigh 🤦‍♀️ You lot really give Nigerian editors a bad reputation. Sock puppetry isn’t permitted here. Celestina007 (talk) 03:22, 5 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

:::Celestina007, let's be sincere to each other. This musician really exist in Nigeria. I know about him very well and he is popular in his career even if he is an up coming artist at least he's already becoming popular. And you all know it's not easy to be on the web. And also he is he did an online concert yesterday in Cuba because of the corona situation at hand. You can search for the concert online. It's there on google, even if he is upcoming at least he is fast rising. But the author should be punished for PR— Preceding unsigned comment added by RealMeHero (talk • contribs) 06:32, 5 July 2020 (UTC) —RealMeHero (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.

@RealMeHero, in the same manner you should be punished for being a sock puppet of that PR author I guess. Celestina007 (talk) 17:15, 5 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Non-notable musician. No RS. And when there are lots of sockpuppets protesting to keep the article, you already know it's a bad sign and the "article" in fact is pure PR. GhostDestroyer100 (talk) 19:24, 9 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
