No significant coverage from independent media, no national record release or chart hit as either writer or singer, back up dancer only. Only claim to fame seems to be a HuffPo blog and being featured in a few Oprah episodes. Wkharrisjr (talk) 13:42, 13 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Delete I found lots of sources for another Kyle McMahon, who is a sports player (he's currently mentioned here.) But absolutely none for this singer. Perhaps an article could be made for the sportsperson. Taylor Trescott - ^{my talk} + _{my edits} 14:47, 13 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Has had 2 national / international record releases, 4 Oprah shows, airplay on MTV, a documentary on ESPN as manager for pro golfer and was a Rock The Vote artist. Not sure how that doesn't constitute significant coverage from independent media. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.99.183.74 (talk) 15:09, 13 August 2013 (UTC) Sorry, was not logged in.

keep Subject has enough credible sources listed, this article has more credible sources listed than many subjects we have which aren't marked for deletion. MTV.com has a bio page on the artist, which should be credible enough for inclusion. Subject also was guest on 4 episodes of an internationally broadcast television show. Subject is a signed recording artist with the second largest record label in the world. These are all more than sufficient for inclusion. Wikipedias citation search shows over 10,000 articles for search parameter "Kyle McMahon" (or) "K.mac" (or) "Kyle Mac" + Music. Do agree that sports figure Kyle McMahon should also be researched to see if he is currently active enough for inclusion for a page.— Preceding unsigned comment added by 166.137.88.149(talk)

Keep Subject has plenty of sources written about him including MTV, ESPN, broadcast TV, Washington Times, etc. Subject is significant enough to appear here. Subject also trended on Twitter during the last Oprah broadcast he appeared on. Page views for this article show over 100 from day it was published so obviously there is enough interest in this page and will continue to grow when subjects album comes out. We have plenty of subjects with MUCH less fame than this and not nearly as many citations and we've kept them. Original deleter was too quick on the trigger with this one.
