I don't think Aydin Kazemizad meets WP:GNG or WP:MUSICBIO. Looking at the last revision before all the citations on the page were removed, it says he's famous for two things:

1. Winning the Akademia Music Awards. As DragonflySixtyseven said in their edit summary, the Akademia Music Awards seem to be the music equivalent of a research paper mill, where you simply pay money to be featured. Not a notable award.
2. Winning the World Music Awards. This award is notable-ish, except for the fact that Aydin Kazemizad did not win it. The source actually says he won the "Global Music Awards", another no-name possible award mill (there are dozens of winners a month).

I cannot find any other (English) sources mentioning him online. As it currently stands, all the page can say is "Aydin Kazemizad is a musician", which is not enough to satisfy notability. Iiii I I I (talk) 10:43, 5 March 2025 (UTC)
