Fails
WP:BASIC; almost no coverage in reliable secondary sources, except for three short mentions in XXL:
[1],
[2],
[3]. These XXL articles offer a thin, often trivial biography that barely support notability. The rest of the sources cited are the usual online record vendors, and his Twitter account. Also appears to meet none of the
WP:MUSICBIO criteria.

Keep in view of the reliable sources significant coverage in notable magazines and forbes online identified above so that
WP:BASIC is now passed.

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

Delete, non-notable at this time. Never charted and nothing of substance beyond, local interest.

Keep. I mean, there's an in depth article
here in Forbes, a highly notable magazine. This alone is basically enough to meet
WP:GNG. And then there are 34 references. What do you people want. 100 references, 200? Sure some of the refs are trivial but some aren't. OK, I get that the Forbes ref was not in the article, maybe you all did not know about it, I put it in as an external link. So now there's not excuse for not keeping this article.

Keep It appears some worthwhile work has been done on this article since nomination. While there are still some obvious problematic sources that are cluttering things up, notability is established with enough good references to indicate significant coverage.
