*'''Oppose''' It is great when professional pictures of artists get donated. This is certainly a useful picture for the article. But it is too small to be featured quality. Also the chap's fringe shows some artefacts, perhaps over-sharpening when downsized from 21MP to 1.9MP. As a pose, I think we should see a little more of the eyes than we do.

*'''Oppose'''. Not sure that this promo shot is the best candidate for a featured picture, generally speaking, because it shows what the album label/photographer wants you to see, rather what the person is really like. Well, unless this guy is camera-shy anyway. Agree with Colin, the lack of visibility of his face doesn't help.
