This draft lacks inline citations. Wikipedia's verifiability policy requires that all content be supported by reliable sources. We require inline citations (footnotes) to show which source supports which specific statement.

You must place an inline citation directly after:

quotations;
any material whose verifiability is likely to be challenged or is contentious;
any material about living people.

Please edit your draft to support your statements with inline citations. Learn how to create inline citations in the:

Source Editor: Introduction to referencing with Wiki Markup.
VisualEditor: Introduction to referencing with VisualEditor.

This draft's references do not show that the subject meets Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion for music. The draft requires either:

evidence that the subject meets any of the specific criteria for music;

or multiple published secondary sources that:

provide significant coverage: discuss the subject in detail, not just brief mentions or routine announcements;
are reliable: from reputable outlets with editorial oversight;
are independent: not connected to the subject, such as interviews, press releases, the subject's own website, or sponsored content.

Please add references that meet these criteria. If none exist, the subject is not yet suitable for Wikipedia.

It is often easier to prove the notability of an album or artist than an individual song or band member. If the subject is not yet notable, consider improving a relevant existing article instead.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you have not resolved the issues listed above, your draft will be declined again and potentially deleted.
If you need extra help, please ask us a question at the AfC Help Desk or get live help from experienced editors.
Please do not remove reviewer comments or this notice until the submission is accepted.
