Being streamed however many times does not qualify for the charting, certification, and airplay requirements at WP:NSINGER #2, 3, 11, 12. A WP:BEFORE search reveals no significant coverage in reliable sources to confirm any of the other criteria at WP:NSINGER. All that can be found are routine retail and streaming directories, plus an empty placeholder at AllMusic. Article is probably an attempted promotion and, charitably, it is too soon for this rapper to merit a Wikipedia article. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (Talk|Contribs) 18:37, 14 July 2019 (UTC)

• Delete - searches did not turn up the type of in-depth coverage necessary to meet WP:GNG, and as the nom states, nothing to meet WP:NSINGER.Onel5969 ^{TT me} 18:54, 14 July 2019 (UTC)

Comment -In the "Delete" vote above the editor claims that this artist does not meet the WP:NSINGER requirements, but he has released 2 albums on AWAL, fulfilling requirement #5. I also edited the article for the original author to remove any "self promotion" style writing and to make it have a more neutral tone.---GingeBro (talk • contribs)

• Keep - when searching "Insyde Music" on Google: [1] EVERY result is referring to this Insyde. Also, I was able to find some blog coverage of his song. [2] and also another wiki entry: [3] and [4]. Also found a website mentioning him here: [5] His music is also released by the label (Shoelace Records) that released music for Otis Taylor (musician) Also his youtube channel is a Verified Artist Channel, which is only given to artists on large labels with contacts at YouTube, and it means that YouTube deemed there enough coverage and the chance of impersonation of this artist to give it the verified Artist mark. Also is mentioned in the independent music tracking website MusicBrainz (Often used by Wikipedia to gather data for songs and artists) [6]. Plenty of mentions and credibility found. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.156.30.174 (talk • contribs)

Comment - In the above "keep" vote, the other Wikis are copies of THIS version of Wikipedia and prove nothing but website mirroring. The Google search performed by that voter reveals a list of streaming, retail, and lyrics sites that you would get after searching for any musician. All other "sources" given in that vote merely indicate that the rapper exists, not that he has received reliable coverage. See the guidelines given in the original nomination, plus WP:EXIST and WP:ROUTINE. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (Talk|

Comment - He does have a point about the youtube artist channel though. Those are pretty exclusive.---GingeBro 15:11, 17 July 2019 (UTC)

• Keep - I did a little research and found out that he is signed with AWAL, which has an established roster with many independently notable artists, and is owned by Kobalt Music Group, a media company that works with many artists with top 100 hits. — Preceding unsigned comment added by MultiMrWeb (talk • contribs) 15:26, 16 July 2019 (UTC)
