Unsourced BLP. Homepage is a dead link. Looks like selfpromo/close connected author too. The Banner _talk 21:05, 17 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. With coverage at Allmusic [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8], Exclaim![9][10], PopMatters [11], The Boston Phoenix[12], and an apparent article in The Wire [13][14], this artist meets WP:GNG and WP:MUSICBIO #1. Gongshow ^Talk 22:58, 17 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Possible keep - I had a strong feeling that additional sources would be Russian, and yes, Google News archives provided several results. Given that I am not fluent with Russian, I wouldn't know if all of them are relevant so I have notified Wikipedia:WikiProject Russia with hopes to recruit help from Russian experts.

Keep. The sources shown above demonstrate that WP:MUSICBIO is met. — sparklism ^hey! 07:15, 19 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. I don't put much weight on the Allmusic or other album reviews, as these might indicate notability for the albums but do little for the artist. Nevertheless, based on the Wired article cited above and the fact he seems to meet criterion 5 of WP:NBAND, it's keep. --Batard0 (talk) 17:23, 24 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
