The prod speedy was declined because he is signed to a major record label. He hasn't even released his first album! Joe Chill (talk) 22:59, 15 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- All that I could manage to find for significant coverage is this. Joe Chill (talk) 23:01, 15 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- A technical correction -- I declined a speedy, not a prod. To avoid speedy deletion, all the article needs is a good faith claim of importance, and being signed to a major label would satisfy that. However, just being signed would not be enough for me to contest a prod.--Fabrictramp | talk to me 23:05, 15 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- I meant to type speedy. Joe Chill (talk) 23:07, 15 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. Not yet notable. The same single news story is all I could find. Maybe when he has a single out he'll receive more coverage.--Michig (talk) 06:21, 16 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep.On the contrary. He has been featured on a segment of the Australian Brodcasting Channel (a major national news network in AUS) as shown here - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V2s5Gh9lWXs --- and he has a single out FEATURING Flo Rida as seen here -- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D6joMH4x614 —Preceding unsigned comment added by Alexmaxbir (talk • contribs) 17:06, 16 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- That certainly helps. Perhaps Incubation would be the best approach, until we have more coverage on which to base an article.--Michig (talk) 17:23, 16 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep. Has been the subject of multiple non-trivial published works whose source is independent from the musician [1] [2] [3] and thus satisfies WP:MUSICBIO. WWGB (talk) 23:11, 16 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
