Doesn't establish WP:Notability, links are to youtube and what appears to be a blog. Good faith search did not produce any others. Previous PRODs declined. Kelly Marie 0812 (talk) 15:58, 27 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. We should take into account that the subject sings in the Tigrinya language for a primarily Eritrean audience, and internet coverage in Eritrea is poor. Of a population of 6 million, only 200,000 have internet access of any kind, mostly via cellphones. However, the many image and video results that show up on a search, and the fragments of discussion in English, indicate she has performed at many large concerts and dominates the Eritrean pop scene.

Keep per Aymatth. She is mostly certainly notable in Eritrea and Eritrea and Internet don't exactly go hand in hand.♦ Dr. ☠ Blofeld 15:09, 2 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Keep per both of the above. I'd be curious if there are any Tigrinya-language links, though - it's not a language I know. --Ser Amantio di Nicolao^{Che dicono a Signa?}_{Lo dicono a Signa.} 15:14, 2 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
