Draft declined

Thank you for contributing to Wikipedia. Your draft submission to Articles for creation has been reviewed but not accepted at this time.

Feedback

The reviewer, Bobby Cohn, left the following feedback:

This draft's references do not show that the subject meets Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion for organizations and companies. The draft requires multiple published secondary sources that:

provide significant coverage: discuss the subject in detail, excluding routine coverage like product launches, staff appointments, or financial reports and listings in databases or listicles;
are reliable: from reputable outlets with editorial oversight;
are independent: not connected to the subject, such as press releases, the subject's own website, or sponsored content.

Please add references that meet all three of these criteria. If none exist, the subject is not yet suitable for Wikipedia.

I went through your article and found links to all your citations and cleaned them up. Of your citations, the only one that I've seen that passes all the criteria of WP:SIRS is "All You Need To Know About Phonk, the Dance Subgenre That’s Taking Off". The rest of the citations, while they may verify the contents of the article, do not contribute towards the notability threshold as they are either little more than name drops of the company or are interview or PR-style releases of republished information.

Next steps

Edit Draft:Black 17 Media to address the points above, making sure to publish any changes.
When you are ready to resubmit your draft for review, click the Resubmit button.
If you do not edit your draft in the next 6 months, it may be deleted.
