Doesn't rise to the level of notability for inclusion. Doesn't seem to pass MUSIC. Sir Joseph ^(talk) 17:24, 31 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Keep passes WP:BASIC as has significant coverage in a long article by Pitchfork which is a reliable source, also has a bio on allmusic another reliable source as well as per Wikipedia:WikiProject Albums/Sources as well as magazine articles such as Crack, and others- these sources are already referenced in the article.

Keep since, besides the sources listed above, there seems to be plenty of additional coverage on her just in the first page of Google News results. White Arabian Filly ^Neigh 20:21, 31 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. Sources already cited probably adequate for establishing notability, and there's more out there, e.g. [1], [2], [3], [4]. --Michig (talk) 20:27, 31 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Keep I gotta say, this is a WP:BEFORE. She has a chart hit (which I found by googling "abra site:billboard.com"), which suggests she may well be notable (and the record definitely is); combined with the above coverage, I'd go so far as to call the keep pretty obvious. The article doesn't cite all this stuff, and it really should, but nevertheless she's clearly notable - David Gerard (talk) 17:58, 1 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
