Fails notability standards. The bands he has been in do not have their own articles, and having some dance moves go 'viral' on youtube and being mentioned for performing Charles Mingus songs does not meet coverage guidelines. I see no evidence that he is notable ‡ Єl Cid of ᐺalencia ^ᐐT₳LKᐬ 16:59, 16 October 2017 (UTC)

• Keep This is a stub article (literally 15 minutes old) and not yet complete. Those bands should indeed have their own pages. [UPDATE: Too Many Zooz is actually on Wikipedia - I misspelt the name of the band.] This performer has gone in the space of a few years to busking on the New York subway to leading a jazz orchestra as part of an international music festival on prime-time TV in front of an audience of millions. You're most welcome to add to the article. I'd suggest expanding on the link with Beyonce Knowles and his more recent televised career. Millstream3 (talk) 17:12, 16 October 2017 (UTC)

Note- I'm not sure how waiting more time would make the performer more notable, and incomplete articles shouldn't be published. I don't think the performer is notable. That's my opinion, after performing due diligence. ‡ Єl Cid of ᐺalencia ^ᐐT₳LKᐬ 17:18, 16 October 2017 (UTC)

Addendum - Of course it doesn't make a performer more notable; it allows for the article to be more complete. As you well know there are thousands of short stub articles for notable people on Wikipedia. If an internationally famous jazz musician who is the main guest on a BBC Prom and who plays at Ronnie Scott's isn't notable, you must have a exceptionally high bar for notability!

• Comment You haven't helped your keep cause here by copying and pasting several sentences without using quotation marks and attributing it to the wrong source. I've corrected that and added another couple of things. I think it's currently borderline on criterion 1 of Wikipedia:Notability (music), because all the sources I've seen mention him briefly when writing about something he was part of.
