An up-and-coming singer who has made some guest appearances with notable artists, but it is too soon for her own article. All available sources found during a search are her own self-promotional sites and the usual streaming/video sites, or they are about the acts that recruited her as a special guest. In the discography area of the article, note that none of her own singles have charted, and ~~she was not "lead artist" on the song with CamelPhat but instead was guest singer.~~ Same goes for the song with Alan Walker, and she does not inherit their notability. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (Talk|Contribs) 16:18, 9 September 2018 (UTC) ---DOOMSDAYER520 (Talk|Contribs) 16:18, 9 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. She is currently listed as joint main artist on the UK's official charts. It has been in the chart for 15 weeks as of the present date and is still in the top 30, so she qualifies for being a chart artist.Tuzapicabit (talk) 15:31, 10 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. Per above, Official Charts has "Panic Room" attributed to Au/Ra & CamelPhat [1] (i.e. she's the lead/co-lead artist). She doesn't have tons of coverage yet, but I think there's enough out there to help her satisfy GNG (e.g. [2]). Camerafiend (talk) 17:47, 10 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Point taken with the single credited to Au/Ra and CamelPhat; but will let the nomination take its course on the WP:TOOSOON standard. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (Talk|Contribs) 18:11, 10 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. I can't see any valid reason for the deletion of this article. You will note that "Panic Room" is titled as "Au/Ra & CamelPhat" (http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio1/chart/singles, currently No.30). She isn't just a "special guest" in this song, she actually is the joint lead artist. Also, despite only being a featured artist on "Darkside", this song did reach No.1, and therefore earned her recognition. I would argue that after the successes of these songs, she is not a singer "who has made some guest appearances with notable artists", but is in fact a notable artist in her own right now.
