Aside from having been created by a WP:SPA which edits *only* in the field of Mileo's articles (and created Echo (Mileo song), Know You Better (Mileo song) and Worry (song), none of which met NSONG and which I've redirected now), there's no conferrance of notability here. Fails WP:NMUSIC - the only coverage I can find in a reliable source is the VG article about his song sparking some outrage. Rest of sources are just Facebook/WP:SELFPUB/interviews with the artist which are excluded under NMUSIC, and the closest in terms of chart notability is "Echo" which placed 202nd in Russia's charts, a far cry from notability. Any coverage he has received is because of his participation in Melodi Grand Prix 2024 (Norway's Eurovision pre-selection event), which brings WP:BLP1E into play, and even that has just been mentioning his name or song in articles about it, so doesn't meet sigcov. ser! ^{(chat to me - see my edits)} 10:00, 26 January 2024 (UTC)

Delete: To me, this clearly seems like the SPA was made seemingly by Mileo himself to get himself a page, or it was done by a large fan of his. Does not meet notability requirements as mentioned above, and so no reason to have the page. Wikidaddy42 (talk) 18:58, 26 January 2024 (UTC)— Wikidaddy42 (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.

Keep: Whether the creator of this page was originally an SPA or not is irrelevant, the article is clearly of a notable musician that has been in current media a lot especially recently.

You are also a SPA. Wikidaddy42 (talk) 21:33, 27 January 2024 (UTC)

The editing history of this page isn't from just a few users but many who are aware of the subject. i'm concerned this user has a personal issue with the artist in question, the figure is publicly notable in Norway. Margaretrox (talk) 22:37, 27 January 2024 (UTC)

Both of these are just articles in a local newspaper and do not confer notability. The COVID-19 one appears to be an interview, which is excluded by WP:NMUSIC per other publications where the musician or ensemble talks about themselves. That leaves one local newspaper article, which is nowhere near enough to meet WP:NMUSIC. ser! ^{(chat to me - see my edits)} 22:30, 30 January 2024 (UTC)

Keep: if the issues are with the references on the page then just update the references, there are many sources https://www.nettavisen.no/5-95-1592809 the artist is still notable NorHux (talk) 07:53, 31 January 2024 (UTC) — NorHux (talk) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.

That's one additional article which mentions the song as a participant in MGP, which falls under WP:BLP1E. ser! ^{(chat to me - see my edits)} 13:59, 31 January 2024 (UTC)

Mentioning a program the song appears on doesn't warrant a disregard of an article, the article's purpose is a debate on the controversy surrounding lyrics of a recent musical release, not a show it appears on. NorHux (talk) 23:33, 31 January 2024 (UTC)
