Not meeting WP:GNG or any criteria of WP:NMUSICIAN. Itunes can't be considered a musical chart. Nomadicghumakkad (talk) 05:14, 8 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Just a request before a consensus is reached on the article. Help improve the article if any of the Wikipedia standards aren't met. I have tried that the article complies with WP:GNG and WP:NMUSICIAN. I agree that iTunes isn't a chart but have cited 5 reliable source which are not press releases or blogs. Also, since I have seen this often come up in deletion discussions and talk pages, I would like to clear the air by hereby declaring that I am in no way related to the subject but have attended his show in India .Grieffindor (talk) 10:07, 15 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Delete just a promotional article. Fails WP:GNG and WP:NMUSICIAN. None of the criteria for musicians met. RationalPuff (talk) 08:53, 17 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. This is a case of WP:TOOSOON. The subject has gotten some press coverage, but they are mostly interviews which are not independent or puff pieces such as mentioning his achievement as the first Indian musician to have a billboard in Time Square. None of it is in depth or independent enough to meet WP:SIGCOV. Likewise, he hasn't yet achieved any of the criteria at WP:NMUSIC.4meter4 (talk) 20:45, 23 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
