Non notable rapper who falls short of WP:MUSICBIO. Optimizing the Google Translator for the sources provided I observed that the first is not independent of him as it’s a Q & A, the second source isn’t a reliable one and so is the third. A before I conducted shows he lacks in-depth significant coverage in reliable sources hence doesn’t satisfy GNG. Per WP:ANYBIO he also doesn’t qualify.

• Delete -- per nom. This and this are the same source. It is an interview whose introduction gives his real name, names a song that was "trending" at the time, and three more that had previously gone "viral". The other reliable sources are this, that says "[according to the organisers], ..., Rapper Mr. D, ..., are among the artists performing at the [local town] festival", and this, that says that according to the organisers, Mr D was one of those who performed in the evening session in the Pokhara town festival. That's all the reliable coverage the article currently cites. Independent search doesn't yield any better. I will add that town festivals go on for days and accommodate almost everyone who is up for public performance. Those include one or two notable artists if luck favours, but otherwise struggling artists, local artists, aspiring amateurs and school/college students.
