This page is based on two articles from the New York Times in addition to other sources. The NYT is a credible source. I don't know how much more credible you can get. The content is limited to information found in these published articles. I am wondering why you hid your Wikipedia identity when tagging this page.

Two minor clips in the NYT doesn't make the case in terms of the subject's true significance, but they and the other sources meet WP's notability guidelines, all quibbles aside. Based on these sources, however, the subject is a clearly a regional artist, so I'd suggest that the article reflect this as best as possible. For example, one of the sources cited (NJ.com) indicates he's "another Jersey Shore musician," so the term could be used in one of the opening sentences. The other stuff in the lead belongs down below. Too much here is made of not that much. Allreet (talk) 05:09, 27 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
