The duo is off to a better start than most indie artists. Their first CD NV Presents: Pep Boi Music: Volume 1 has sold over 20,000 copies internationally and garnered them national attention from the likes of BET's popular show 106 and Park. In 2006, they were invited to New York to perform their first single "My Turn" on the show in front of millions of viewers. The song is an anthem to their relentless hustle over the past five years and the fact that they have earned any success they have received and will receive. However, the entire CD is filled with enough heat to blow up a hot air balloon.

NV describes their sound as real music for everyone. "People always compare us to artists like Outkast because we do a little bit of everything. On one track you might hear that gansta music the West Coast in known for and then the next song might sound like pop or rock. We make whatever kind of music we're feeling at the time. You can't put us in a box, " says Dolla. "We wanna work with every genre hip hop, R&B, pop rock…whatever it is we gone make it hot!" adds Lute.

The group is currently fielding offers from major labels but they are taking their time making a decision to insure that whatever situation they enter into is the best one for them. "We talking to a couple of labels, but we're going to weigh our options and make the right decision." says Lute. "But until we do we gone keep on grinding, making mix tapes and albums and getting this money. Pep Boi's gone eat regardless!!" says Dolla.

Dolla and Lute both admit that there is much more to do, but they also recognize that even at this stage they've got it good….making money with your best friend while doing something you love is a blessing. …….Amen!
