Fails WP:MUSICBIO and WP:GNG. References fail verification and are all fraudulent copyright violations. For example, The First Magazine is a copyvio of a Fab World Today article (blacklisted) and The Guardian Fox is a copyvio of an Open The News article (blacklisted as well). Also, all of these sites with the poorly written copied and pasted content seem to be all Wordpress blogs with either missing or blank About Us sections, which is a huge red flag.

• Delete per WP:DICDEF, WP:RS, and WP:BLP. Besides being too short to be a stub, it lacks reliable sources (see nom's analysis), which violates BLPO. Bearian (talk) 20:30, 7 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
