Background
In 2008, his debut single "Somebody" became a top 10 hit on the NZ iTunes top songs for all genres and #1 on NZ iTunes top hip hop downloads. Later that year, his hit single "Too Shy" jumped from #38 to #6 in one week on New Zealand’s RIANZ Top 40 Singles Chart.[1]
In 2009, the pop group The Pussycat Dolls asked Devolo to do a remix of their forthcoming single "Bottle Pop". He is also expected to appear on the song "Indulge Me" from the forthcoming[when?] album Something Awesome by David Dallas.[citation needed]
His debut solo album Heaven & Hell was released on March 2, 2009. But, it failed to make the charts, unlike its three singles.[2]
