Submission declined on 2 September 2024 by DoubleGrazing (talk). This submission appears to read more like an advertisement than an entry in an encyclopedia. Encyclopedia articles need to be written from a neutral point of view, and should refer to a range of independent, reliable, published sources, not just to materials produced by the creator of the subject being discussed. This is important so that the article can meet Wikipedia's verifiability policy and the notability of the subject can be established. If you still feel that this subject is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, please rewrite your submission to comply with these policies. This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of music-related topics). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

- Comment: The sources are just release plugs and publicity materials regurgitations, and fall well short of WP:GNG. Meanwhile, one EP and a handful of singles under their belt, with nothing by way of certifications or chart performance etc., there is no evidence of WP:MUSICBIO notability either. With four earlier declines already, I should probably be rejecting this now, but let's give it one more try. DoubleGrazing (talk) 12:23, 2 September 2024 (UTC)
- Comment: Creator has confirmed they are paid editor - see HERE Cassiopeia talk 13:03, 23 March 2024 (UTC)
- Comment: "Monumental instrumentalist"?Also, see WP:BLP. All statements, starting with the date of birth, need to be sourced or removed. Greenman (talk) 09:46, 2 January 2024 (UTC)
- Comment: The one source added since the previous review provides trivial coverage, not enough to establish notability. ARandomName123 (talk)Ping me! 21:11, 19 August 2023 (UTC)
