Redirect to Cobra Starship. He is not independently notable. Cullen328 (talk) 19:22, 13 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to Cobra Starship. WP Articles for the individual members of Cobra Starship date back to 2007 when the band took off, and at the time it was easier to justify articles for every member of a notable band. This article serves little purpose beyond reprinting self-written autobiographies at Blackinton's own promotional sites. Despite a long career he has achieved no independent notability outside of Cobra Starship. I am also skeptical about the notability of his other band This Is Ivy League but that is another discussion. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (TALK|CONTRIBS) 13:32, 14 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
