#NtseegKuv10Years: Evolution Records Entertainment

“Ntseeg Kuv” is not only the last track on the record but also the album title. It symbolizes a new chapter in my life as a music artist.

 You might’ve heard me mention ERE in the past – Evolution Records Entertainment. Without the creative talent and support of ERE, “Ntseeg Kuv” could never have been realized. But getting there wasn’t easy.

I actually rejected ERE’s first interest in signing me onto their North Carolina based label. They were and still are the best in the business, with great talent, kind hearts, and genuine intentions. But there was a lot of internal work that had to take place for me. I didn’t know if I would or could record another album again after my debut. Because of that, it would take two more years of building trust, camaraderie, and patience between the both of us before I finally took a leap of faith and signed with ERE in 2009.

It’s still one of the best decisions I’ve ever made.

Fong Lor, Kong Lor, & Shu Lor of ERE — thank you from the bottom of my heart.

…For being my music family, no matter where our paths have taken each of us. You have my back, support me near and far, and keep my best interest in mind. After all these years, I hope you read the comments of my listeners and see the impact you’ve made with your incredible talent and support. And finally, thank you for holding onto your belief in me 13 years ago. None of this would’ve happened if you hadn’t, and you taught me how to trust again.

Ua nej tsaug tshaj plaws.
