There are no in-depth references from reliable and verifiable sources about the individual in the article and no meaningful sources were found in a Google search. This source from Thesource.com provides some detail about an album he released, but doesn't say much about the artist.

I'm happy to reconsider / withdraw the nomination if appropriate sources can be found to establish notability. Alansohn (talk) 21:02, 15 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hi,

These articles should be a great start to verify more about RJM the artist.

[1]https://theinscribermag.com/rjm-an-american-born-hip-hop-rap-artist/

[2]https://streamlinemusicblog.com/2022/07/11/artist-feature-rjm/

We are going to reach out to the company that made the Wikipedia page - which has the editing privileges.

I hope you will kindly reconsider as this can be fixed. Thank you.

Best regards,

RJM is also featured on nyweekly.com by a credible speaker and writer.

• Delete Well, thank you for letting us know that this article was WP:PAID for. The account that created the page should probably be blocked as an undisclosed paid editor. There is zero reliable sourcing, either in the article itself or presented in this AfD. Best, GPL93 (talk) 19:12, 17 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  Professionally, assumptions are a biased point of view as this is all real information. It's searchable and listed on RJM's digital footprint. Every article can be found when searching "RJMpoet" or "RJM Poetic Drive" in a Google search. Thanks, RJMarmy (talk) 14:03, 20 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

But none of them meet the bar of WP:RS, so notability is not established and this article should be deleted. GPL93 (talk) 14:32, 20 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete - Let's be charitable with WP:TOOSOON as the musician has not yet been noticed beyond his company's promotional efforts. As the other folks said, a Wikipedia article requires notability as shown by coverage in significant and reliable sources. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (TALK|CONTRIBS) 16:07, 20 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete - and perhaps salt due to the UPE concerns. Currently fails WP:GNG.Onel5969 ^{TT me} 13:29, 22 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
