Performer viewed with pride, possibly, a rising talent (7)
I believe the answer is:
sinatra
'performer' is the definition.
(I know that Sinatra is a crooner)
'viewed with pride possibly a rising talent' is the wordplay.
'viewed with' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'pride possibly' becomes 'sin' (pride is a kind of sin).
'rising' shows that the letters should be reversed in order (letters written upwards in a down clue).
'talent' becomes 'art' (I've seen this in another clue).
'art' back-to-front is 'tra'.
'sin' put next to 'a' is 'sina'.
'sina'+'tra'='SINATRA'
(Other definitions for sinatra that I've seen before include "Francis Albert, late lamented singer" , "Frank . . . . . . ., late great popular singer" , "Francis Albert, late lamented crooner" , "Francis Albert, 1915-1998" , "Something of a strain for top crooner" .)
