Notability and style concerns. His album Almighty Row isn't notable either. Walt Yoder (talk) 05:08, 3 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete both (musician and album) - I can find no pro reviews of any of his albums, nor reliable coverage of his career in general. The article dates back to 2010, probably started as a promotional attempt by himself or a follower, and somehow remained undetected until now. The article states that he is popular among bloggers, for which I can find no evidence even if that counted for notability here (it doesn't), nor can I find any confirmation that his songs were featured in the various TV shows listed. He may have received minor payment for some snippets to be used as uncredited backing tracks, if that much. He's present on the usual self-upload services, but he does not qualify for an encyclopedic article. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (TALK|CONTRIBS) 14:23, 4 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete both per Doomsdayer520. Obvious lack of notability, and I agree that it seems as if the article was created due to promotional reasons (which is in itself enough for considering deletion). Neither the artist nor the album warrant a standalone article in my opinion. CycloneYoris ^talk! 02:33, 10 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
