Does not meet WP:NMUSIC guidelines. A few very brief mentions in the local press is all she got. She released a single album when she was 4 years old (which she allegedly wrote the lyrics to). Rusf10 (talk) 23:56, 12 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Comment/Delete Maya Bond appears to fall under WP:1E with an event (album) of dubious notability. The article itself has several RS mentions, albeit not the primary topic of most. I would be more confident of the artist's notability based strictly off of WP:BAND if the compilation album inclusions were notable, however, the notability of these works have not been established. If there were stand-alone articles for these compilation albums, a redirect would be more appropriate. With respect to the Pink Drums, Purple Lights article, there are no cited sources on that article. While some of the sources on Maya Bond could apply to the Pink Drums article, the notability per WP:NALBUMS for Pink Drums, Purple Lights is not established. Being said, I'm not taking a firm position on the Maya Bond article, however, would endorse the deletion of Pink Drums, Purple Lights. Babegriev (talk) 02:17, 13 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Both (singer and album) - The album Pink Drums, Purple Lights got a featured review in the Houston Press [1], which is not cited at the album article but it is cited at the Maya Bond article (footnote #5 as I type this). That is the only semi-reliable coverage I can find for the singer or the album. The other sources in the singer's article are minor one-sentence mentions, typically noting the novelty of recording an album at age 4, but I can find nothing else that qualifies as significant and reliable coverage. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (TALK|CONTRIBS) 14:36, 13 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Additional comment about the previous AfDs: Maya Bond the actress appears to be someone else. The singer survived two previous AfDs, but the first was in 2007 when notability requirements were looser (and note how everybody said there were sources but did not provide a single specific example). The second AfD ended with no consensus, allowing the article to just barely survive. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (TALK|CONTRIBS) 14:40, 13 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Delete I don't see that it has too much news nor does it meet WP:MUSICBIO. Lesliechin1 (talk) 09:42, 18 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
