Does not seem to meet musician notability requirements. The article is a BLP with only one source that doesn't even support any of the admittedly few grasps at notability the article makes. Nerd1a4i (talk) 16:36, 1 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: the subject has had a string of hits on the Billboard R&B charts (including a no. 1), and has scraped into the lower reaches of the Billboard Hot 100 [1], Billboard 200 Albums [2] and the UK Singles Chart [3]. He has an AllMusic biography [4] and articles in Billboard [5], [6]. He's even written a song that featured on a Grammy-nominated album ("Never Let Go", from Walking By Faith by the Canton Spirituals), although admittedly, this is a more tenuous connection to notability.

Keep Music artists AfD's are filled with so many obvious candidates for deletion. THIS is the exact opposite. Plenty of qualifying billboard chart appearances alone make this a keep. Not sure why this was even nominated. ShelbyMarion (talk) 02:20, 2 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. The coverage identified above (e.g., [7][8][9]) shows that the singer meets WP:GNG and WP:MUSICBIO. gongshow talk 02:26, 2 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Keep – Meets both GNG and WP:MUSIC and so is easily notable. J947^{^{^{(c) (m)}}} 23:26, 3 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy Keep as per above; the article could use some cleanup and improved referencing. power~enwiki (π, ν) 19:58, 4 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Does meet GNG and NMUSIC.182.65.88.95 (talk) 09:53, 6 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
