WP:BLP of a musician who might pass WP:NMUSIC if the article were properly sourced at all — however, as written the actual facts are all completely unsourced, with the only "references" present anywhere in the entire article being primary sources supporting personal quotes by individual people under the "accolades" section about how great he is to work with — which is not appropriate content for a Wikipedia article, violates WP:NPOV and edges the article dangerously close to being an advertisement rather than an encyclopedia article. I'm willing to withdraw this if real sources start showing up, but it's not entitled to stick around in this form. Delete. Bearcat (talk) 02:11, 21 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete There seems to be nothing out there that isn't self-generated or from non-reliable sources. An impressive resume (although unsourced) but working on many musical projects does not confer notability unless there's some secondary coverage of it. §FreeRangeFrogcroak 00:35, 22 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
